Earlier quoted context omitted.

Is Microsoft intentionally making this exploitable? I knew it was only a matter of time before Recall would be compromised, but this shows they aren't even trying to secure it.

They recently added encryption separate from Bitlocker that applies per-user and only unlocks when you log in. It's possible they're using that.

Seems like BitLocker is highly compromised… too bad it was a good concept

Would love to know the ratio of marketing spend to R&D on this thing.

My guess is this was never supposed to be the marquee feature for Copilot PC, but likely whatever else they had either slipped or was cut so they had to push this half-baked crap to the front.

The AI threats we were promised: Roko's Basilisk etc.

The AI threats we received: People collecting tons of sensitive data in a really stupid manner because it is important to be able to make lots of press releases containing the word 'AI' while the market bubble lasts.
