in a transparent and optional way it could be good

You people say this, but then MS ponders the release of a local-only Recall and everybody loses their shit…

People don’t trust Microsoft to honor their promises. Hmm, I wonder why… 🤔

that does not make it transparent, neither optional.

  If you only interpret “transparent” as “open source”, then yeah, I agree.
  
  If, however, you also consider “well documented” as “transparent”, then what exactly is the deal?
  
  And it’s already going to be opt-in.

    Technically, yes. what I really mean is that people can look at it and determine it does not want to fuck people over, but that probably can’t really be done practically without it being open source.

    I don’t trust microsoft with having an accurate, honest documentation on something like this. but this reminded me of another aspect that even being open source does not really solve: what about changes in the future? I could be reading the docs or the source now, but I won’t even get to know when it updates.
    
    And it’s already going to be opt-in.
    
    I have my doubts about whether they’ll keep it that way
