Don’t use it people – unless your computer is air-gapped!

 

(Yes, I’m paranoid.)

 

Microsoft Recall screenshots credit cards and Social Security numbers, even with the "sensitive information" filter enabled | Tom's Hardware

 

This statement made me LOL: You could argue that chances are someone won’t be remotely accessing your desktop without your permission.

 

As if the author had never experienced a RAT?

 

Microsoft Recall can still nab credit cards, passwords, info • The Register

That's not paranoia, that's understanding computers, software and their incredible lack of security.

Ugh … *Insert Expletive Here* … found a new one that got turned on I had no clue about:

 

 

 

This type of behaviour is wrong. Just wrong.

 

I’ve turned the new ones off.

 

Edge on Win10 so I don’t see the “Security” section anymore in Edge. They’ve removed it or hidden it.

I forgot to add the second part of my rant.

 

No one, and I mean NO ONE, that I’ve talked to that have implemented CoPilot on their networks have a single clue what’s being exfiltrated by the “spider” CoPilot uses to “crawl” all of the internal company data.

 

No one, NO ONE, knows if their data remains on-premises, or within their private cloud, or if it gets sent to a Microsoft server somewhere.

 

That, to me, is the biggest concern I have about Microsoft’s push to get into everyone’s network.

OT now…. But I can help companies with that. 😊It’s a service/solution I provide – as well as how to securely deploy CoPilot.

 

(And I can assure you – it’s not that easy.)

I have someone in mind.

 

Send me the deets. I’ll reach out to them to see where they are at.
