     And now you see why Microsoft was so hot on imposing Bitlocker and a required Microsoft account in their latest Windoze 11 24H2 upgrade.

     Part of me likes the feature of what is basically a snapshot of where you've been. I do not, however, need either cops or LLM/AI scrapers looking through my porn......errrrrrrrrrr, my private info.

     Doing a swell job, MS. For Ubuntu, Mint, and Arch Linux.

     There is no fucking encryption in existence that I would trust to keep 3 months of my PC usage secret. And I’m not even doing shit that would get me targeted by a goddamn hostile nation state or anything.

     @AnarchoNinaWrites@jorts.horse and are they going to require people to re-auth every time they want to use this feature, or is every unlocked windows PC basically a sneak peek into what someone has been doing for months?
     
     Oh, keyword searchable, so you can even just hit whatever keyboard shortcut it’ll be and look for specific things! Brilliant, love it. Horsefucking copsuckers.
