Signal Fights Back Against Microsoft's Invasive Screenshot Feature

Privacy-focused messaging app Signal is taking a stand against Microsoft's Recall feature, an AI-powered screenshot tool that captures screen activity. To protect user privacy, Signal has enabled a default "Screen security" setting on Windows 11 that blocks Recall from capturing Signal chats. Signal states this was a necessary measure as Microsoft hasn't provided alternative ways to prevent Recall's data collection. This solution, while impacting some users' accessibility, underscores Signal's commitment to privacy and calls for Microsoft to prioritize user data protection.
