Microsoft says that the Recall index remains local and private on-device, encrypted in a way that is linked to a particular user’s account. “Recall screenshots are only linked to a specific user profile and Recall does not share them with other users, make them available for Microsoft to view, or use them for targeting advertisements. Screenshots are only available to the person whose profile was used to sign in to the device,” Microsoft says.
Users can pause, stop, or delete captured content and can exclude specific apps or websites. Recall won’t take snapshots of InPrivate web browsing sessions in Microsoft Edge or DRM-protected content
But who will have the encryption key? Since you need more and more connectivity to operate win 11, who is to say this isn’t accessible from outside if Microsoft gets breached
Did they state they’ll use it? I’m highly concerned this will heavily rely on the tos verbiage and “local storage” will deceive users into thinking the info won’t intentionally or not intentionally leak.
I can it’s encrypted locally but still send partial data out, just like some VPNs that don’t record anything can still just forward the data to the NSA. ToS can allow loopholes that aren’t alwaya obvious
Local and optional.
And there will be people who actually believe this
I know trust that gut feeling truthiness rather than MS and their long standing record of telling you exactly what they are collecting.
MS phones home a ton of shit. They are also always upfront about it, especially in the enterprise space.

Bit locker is well documented and an effective full disk encryption.

If bit locker is on then the entire disk is encrypted . It has nothing to do with ToS, it’s how you configure your system.
