Brave and AdGuard now block Microsoft Recall by default
The article discusses how the web browser Brave and the ad-blocker AdGuard have decided to block Microsoft Recall by default due to privacy concerns. Recall is an AI-powered tool that accompanies Windows 11 and records everything on a PC's screen, including private information. Both Brave and AdGuard have expressed concerns that Recall could capture sensitive data, such as credit card information or personal conversations. The article mentions that the chat app Signal has also urged AI teams building systems like Recall to consider the privacy implications more carefully. While Recall may be a useful productivity tool, the privacy risks have led Brave and AdGuard to block the feature by default, though users can still choose to enable it if they wish.
