Meanwhile, Jen Caltrider, who leads a privacy team at Mozilla, suggested the plans meant someone who knew your password could now access your history in more detail.

“[This includes] law enforcement court orders, or even from Microsoft if they change their mind about keeping all this content local and not using it for targeted advertising or training their AIs down the line,” she said.

According to Microsoft, Recall will not moderate or remove information from screenshots which contain passwords or financial account information.

“That data may be in snapshots that are stored on your device, especially when sites do not follow standard internet protocols like cloaking password entry,” said Ms Caltrider.

“I wouldn’t want to use a computer running Recall to do anything I wouldn’t do in front of a busload of strangers.

“That means no more logging into financial accounts, looking up sensitive health information, asking embarrassing questions, or even looking up information about a domestic violence shelter, reproductive health clinic, or immigration lawyer.”
