📰 Blog Context (Based on June–July 2025 Tech News):
📸 Microsoft recently introduced its “Recall” AI feature in Copilot+ PCs — designed to take screenshots every few seconds, index everything you do, and make it searchable with AI.
Sounds powerful? Yes.
But security experts are warning: It’s a goldmine for hackers.
If malware gains access, it could extract passwords, private emails, screenshots of chats, and sensitive company data — all beautifully organized and searchable.
🛑 Why It’s a Privacy Red Flag:
Continuous screen capture, even from private apps
All data is locally stored, but vulnerable to local threats
Can expose sensitive client or business data
Recall can’t be easily monitored or controlled by IT teams
🛡️ What You Should Do:
If using a Copilot+ PC, turn off Recall if you don’t need it
Monitor device storage for hidden screen logs
Use full-disk encryption and endpoint protection
Educate staff to disable AI features not meant for work use
Be cautious about what’s visible on-screen — it may be saved forever
💡 Quick Tip:
Your screen is now a journal — everything you look at might be stored. Would you want a hacker to read it?
