As tool emerges to probe OS feature's SQLite-based store of user activities
Asked to explore the data privacy issues arising from Microsoft Recall, the Windows maker's poorly received self-surveillance tool, Jaime Teevan, chief scientist and technical fellow at Microsoft Research, brushed aside concerns.
"Yeah, and so it's a great question, Erik," said Teevan."This has come up throughout the morning as well – the importance of data. And this AI revolution that we're in right now is really changing the way we understand data." Teevan responded,"Yeah, yeah, so this is a foundational thing that we as a company care a lot about is actually the protection of data. So Recall is a feature which captures information. It's a local Windows functionality, nothing goes into the cloud, everything's stored locally."
