Despite promising to filter personal data out, Recall still captures it.

jmcs ( @jmcs@discuss.tchncs.de ) English8•4 months agoHow happy are you to know your personal data is still going to be leaked because 90% of the services handling it are using MS Backdoor OS? If it’s not going to be your bank it will be your work, if not your work, then it will be your government, and there will be no consequences because "nobody ever got fired for buying Microsoft®"™.

1984 ( @1984@beehaw.org ) English1•4 months agoIs this a joke comment? Your experience is playing on MS OS, a flight sim which, assuming it’s the Flight Simulator, periodically sends data back and forth? on top of using it at work.
PerogiBoi ( @PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca ) English1•4 months agoIs this a joke response to my comment? I play XPlane 11 and 12 and Aerofly FS4. Reread the original comment I replied to because you seem confused.

Its almost like this was a bad idea to begin with.

Cethin ( @Cethin@lemmy.zip ) English2•4 months agoYou don’t need SteamOS. It’s likely not going to solve any problems for you that aren’t solved elsewhere. It’ll be good for console-like devices, but just use a normal desktop distro for a desktop computer.
I like Garuda Dragonized for gaming. It comes set up with a lot of gaming stuff already, and makes it easy to install a bunch of other gaming related packages you may want.
Theres no need to wait for Valve. The problem is solved already.
_____ ( @_____@lemm.ee ) English1•4 months agoeh? I tried gaming with lutris fairly recently and I’d call it far from solved.
it’s in a better spot than a decade ago
Cethin ( @Cethin@lemmy.zip ) English1•4 months agoWhat went wrong? I’ve had essentially no issues lately. I know there’s a handful of games with anti-cheats or DRMs that break (mostly out of China), but it’s pretty minor. Modding is also a bit of a pain and has to be done manually for now, but Nexus is working on a new mod manager that should work for all platforms eventually.
ByteOnBikes ( @ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net ) English2•4 months agoIm excited to live in that world.
Any game that relies on BS DRM like Denuvo that refuses to work for SteamOS can die in a fire.
Most of the are shitty multiplayer games anyways.

frostprophet ( @frostprophet@infosec.pub ) English8•4 months agoAlthough not the exact topic covered in the article, as you wouldn’t necessarily be sending sensitive information like that to other people, but it’s important to note that this means nothing you’ve sent before is safe.
It’s not enough that from “now on” you don’t send anything you wouldn’t want Recall to capture, if you’ve already sent it and someone with Recall captures it then it’s compromised. It’s not just your own device that you need to worry about, it’s also everyone you might contact or have ever contacted.
