<p>Microsoft enabled the notorious "Recall" with the last update (for Windows 11 only). It's part of the OS and can't be uninstalled.

<p>An Indian Drugmaker, Investigated by ProPublica Last Year, Has Recalled Two Dozen Medications Sold to U.S. Patients<br>—</p><p>FDA inspectors found serious problems at a Glenmark factory in India that manufactured the recalled drugs. Another medication made there has been tied to deaths of U.S. patients.<br><a href="https://www.propublica.org/article/glenmark-recalls-two-dozen-drugs?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=mastodon-post" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="www.propublica.org/article/glenmark-recalls-two-dozen-drugs?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=mastodon-post"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">www.propublica.org/article/gle</span><span class="invisible">nmark-recalls-two-dozen-drugs?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=mastodon-post</span></a></p><p><a href="/tags/news/" rel="tag">#News</a> <a href="/tags/fda/" rel="tag">#FDA</a> <a href="/tags/pharma/" rel="tag">#Pharma</a> <a href="/tags/regulation/" rel="tag">#Regulation</a> <a href="/tags/recall/" rel="tag">#Recall</a> <a href="/tags/consumer/" rel="tag">#Consumer</a> <a href="/tags/safety/" rel="tag">#Safety</a> <a href="/tags/health/" rel="tag">#Health</a></p>
<p>So why is Microsoft insisting on pushing out a feature it is very clear users just do not want? What is the point of it? It just does not make any sense. Recall makes no sense. It is one of rather many functions that Microsoft wants to force people into using.</p><p>Personally I also do not want Copilot on my computer and the idea that there can be a key on my keyboard that I can press that will enable by mistake it is not what I would think most people want.</p><p>I believe that there should be a very clear line between what is on your computer and what is in the cloud. Forcing people to log into a Microsoft online account to use their computer is crazy. Having people mistakenly enabling OneDrive is another disaster. </p><p>I guess this is all a great opportunity for Linux.</p><p><a href="/tags/microsoft/" rel="tag">#Microsoft</a> <a href="/tags/spyware/" rel="tag">#Spyware</a> <a href="/tags/recall/" rel="tag">#Recall</a> <a href="/tags/windows/" rel="tag">#Windows</a> <a href="/tags/linux/" rel="tag">#Linux</a> <a href="/tags/computer/" rel="tag">#Computer</a> </p><p><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj3xjrj7v78o" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj3xjrj7v78o"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj3x</span><span class="invisible">jrj7v78o</span></a></p>
