So even if it does ship like this guy thinks it will, it will take someone gaining control of the computer and having the victim click show password at the wrong time.

The end is nigh.

Lol you believe everything lol.

It would probably just be microplastics by then?

Sorry I don't take everyones word as truth. This guy is just one guy. One guy against the whole Microsoft corporation whose entire fortune depends on this not to fail in the way he said it certainly will. Absurd.

What a dumb and petty response.

Bye.

If you are so afraid, you can just turn it of. You are aware of this are you not?

OK if you think I'm trolling, why did you answer?

I give you the benefit of the doubt you are a reasonable person who can go beyond their emotions of a feature of an os. And the emotions this article stirred.

Sure. Why not. These hysterical people here panicking are the chosen ones that know and understand everything.

What kind of malicious code would be able to do that?

Oh a knight in shining armour trying to defend my dialogue partner?

Did you ask anyone needed defense? Because I'm pretty sure they don't.

If you read carefully I wrote "or something" at the end implying that I don't know exactly what they believe. It was not that subtle of invitation for them to agree with my first assessment or correct me. I will try to be really blunt in the future, so that you don't missunderstand again.

It's very unlikely you could get the password from recall

But it doesn't save completely everything. It does snapshots as far as I understand. So it's unlikely a whole password would be there on a snapshot. And again, it had to be mentioned that anything can be excluded from recall or disabled completely.

At this point it has to be again highlighted that gaining access to a computer is very hard and that in itself is game over scenario. More information can be gained from a keylogger than this recall feature.

Not if it's encrypted and if sensitive information is not saved.

Main point is still that gaining control of someone's computer against their will is practically impossible today. If someone manages to do it, they already have your files and all the sensitive information they could want. They won't even bother with this recall. And if you are worried about it, you will be able to just turn it off.

Much ado about nothing.

I didn't want to put words in your mouth, but wanted to clear up where each of us stand so there is no missunderstanding.

If somebody gains control of your computer today, that's a massive privacy and security hole in itself.

As I understand not everything will be read and stored, storage will be encrypted. We don't even know what exactly will be stored and everybody here is losing their mind.

We already have a lot of sensitive information on our computers and nobody is panicking.

I guess it's hard to get used to new stuff. Or maybe Linux users are afraid that their favourite system won't be able to compete anymore.

You can define almost anything as a security risk. But we aren't children to play such stupid games.

We are talking about someone gaining that information and the probability of that happening without even knowing what security mesaures will be in place. I think the risk is negligible even today with the limited information about it that we have now. Other People here, presumably you as well are hysterical about it.

Thats what the discussion is. You actually believe Microsoft will launch this and then everybody will be hacked or something. I think that is... not smart.

I don't know. We will both be able to discover them when the features are deployed.

This is a senseless hysteria about how this is horrible and... I don't even want to go into all the dumb shit I read.

Go ahead laugh. Because you will indeed forget all about it and never remember your doubts and panic laughter as nothing will happen.

You are the clown with a sign: the end is nigh. You are being naive.

Yes, we have seen it many times before. Much ado about nothing. New feature that will mean some new security measures. Everybody will move on and in a year nobody will remember how some people in the Linux community were panicking.

There likely won't be anything major while 1. 4 billion people will benefit. Security measures will be adapted for this new feature.

This same thing happened before, a lot of panic for nothing.
