Ugh, I didnt think about that😬
Me neither! Microsoft needs to be taken to court over this because it is a serious breach of privacy to not only record the users but even random bystanders as well. Now I am convinced this is just a backdoor for the government hiding in plain sight. Fuck them.
Oh this 100% is the government backdoor that they've been begging for. "If you can innovate your way into it, you can innovate a way out of it."
That was in regards to Apple phones belonging to Boston bombers being encrypted and locked.
It's no surprise that behind closed doors, the government asked these companies to create backdoors for them to spy on people.
