Comment on Brave blocks Microsoft Recall by default

#How we implemented this
Microsoft has said that private browsing windows on browsers will not be saved as snapshots. We’ve extended that logic to apply to all Brave browser windows. We tell the operating system that every Brave tab is ‘private’, so Recall never captures it.

What do you mean? They are literally using the Microsoft provided solution.

I think he means that there should be an OS API to tell recall to shove it, or that apps should have to opt-in to recall.
The fact they need to leverage private browser sessions means it’s a workaround not directly built into the OS.

They're not. That solution was intended for private browsing, not for the app as a whole.
