I appreciate the positive outlook for the possibility of things, but I live in a world where Microsoft has already violated customer trust and privacy, so I'll stick with what evidence supports. Evidence supports that this is not about customers, and is instead a new way for them to get additional data.
The risks of this being done incorrectly, at all, are much more worrisome than any speculative fiction I might want to entertain about them.
This isn't an unreasonable suggestion, but I'm not seeing accessibility mentioned anywhere on the Recall site. For those with sight issues, I'm unclear on how the process would be with the necessary screen-reader that MS is silent on compatibility with. Sure, text to voice is a thing, but that would only be useful at home unless you really want to have a computer read out loud everything it's got in Recall.
The tech is useful.
To Microsoft, sure. But what about the users? Which problem or problems were being solved?

I'm trying to figure out how someone's request for others to provide additional open-source projects like this, even if cross-posted to an astoundingly vast quantity of two communities, is even remotely problematic. The post doesn't violate either community's rules, invites other posters to continue the discussion with similar resources, and OP has been engaged.
