Microsoft now activates 'Recall', a Copilot AI feature that's making your private emails & messaging obsolete by saving screenshots of these every few seconds. So what does this Windows update mean, is it really "opt in" and how can you turn it off? Let's take a deep dive!
You can’t convince 99% of windows users to switch, the real solution is done via legislation. The force of a government is more powerful any boycotts you can muster. (For example: European Union has been passing a regulations on right to repair, do privacy laws next)
Legislation is a poor way to force populations into changing away from something they choose to do/use. As the saying goes “It’s hard to talk someone out of something they weren’t talked into”.
Of course, the idea is that there’s less risk of that the more people switch.

Example: See France or Somalia
In this case the legislation would be used to ban recall and similar features, not to drive people away from windows.
Why not both? As Linux achieves more and more momentum, you are bound to see real change in how Microsoft treats its users.
