For the folks saying install Linux keep in mind you can indirectly be captured by this feature.

For example if you’re playing an online video game you’ll be captured or your chat messages in your messaging app.

Of course, the idea is that there’s less risk of that the more people switch.

  You can’t convince 99% of windows users to switch, the real solution is done via legislation. The force of a government is more powerful any boycotts you can muster. (For example: European Union has been passing a regulations on right to repair, do privacy laws next)

    Why not both? As Linux achieves more and more momentum, you are bound to see real change in how Microsoft treats its users.

    Legislation is a poor way to force populations into changing away from something they choose to do/use. As the saying goes “It’s hard to talk someone out of something they weren’t talked into”.
    
    Example: See France or Somalia

    In this case the legislation would be used to ban recall and similar features, not to drive people away from windows.

That’s pretty easily avoidable, too. Don’t play online games, or talk to people. That’s what I do.

  And Linux will actively help you avoid doing those things.
