Microsoft has announced it is making its controversial Recall feature, announced alongside its new Copilot+ PCs last month, something you will have to opt-in to use.
The feature, which will screenshot everything you do on your computer, is something privacy advocates and security experts have warned could be a “disaster” for cybersecurity, reports [@theverge](https://flipboard.com/@theverge ). Microsoft had originally planned to turn Recall on by default, but now the company says users will need to “proactively choose to turn it on.”
