Microsoft Recall is now an explorer.exe dependency (www.youtube.com)

TLDR:
Windows 11 v24H2 and beyond will have Recall installed on every system. Attempting to remove Recall will now break some file explorer features such as tabs.

What? I thought you were talking about the security and privacy issues, but now I'm not sure what you're arguing against. Even your link admits that the changes for improved security only happened after all the security official in the world said how that feature was asking for trouble from a privacy and security standpoint. It was doing what stuff all along? Improved security features? Definitely not. Your screen shots don't mention any of the stuff in your link, such as the dedicated VPN stored locally, with encryption and keys and PIN, etc.
