I think security folks tend to think of security against a genius hacker with endless resources, which is a good mindset to have when you're building software and cryptography. But this mindset also makes a lot of security folks obstinately oblivious to reality.
I can't imagine what level of collective delusion the people at Microsoft must be under that they would advertise Windows Recall as a good feature. They must be aware of the blood that will be on their hands, right?
It feels almost like that's the point? "Windows with CoPilot + will help you keep tabs on you and yours, every step of the way."
