GDPR Violation and probably a biiiiiiiig no no for 100% of companys besides Microsoft.
How?
By taking screenshots of your desktop.
How does that violate GDPR?
By taking screenshots of everything you do on your PC
Again, how does that violate GDPR?
Are you saying every screenshot tool violates GDPR?
One that Screenshots what you do without you knowing (wich will 100% happen as most people don't read news about the shit Microsoft is doing) it would need to be opt in and very specifically tell you what it does.
So it does by existing.
So let's assume it isn't opt-in (it probably is though) -- you've still yet to explain how an application taking screenshots, even without your knowledge, violates GDPR.
You just keep saying that it does. Prove it.
The taking of screenshots is the privacy violation. There is nothing i have to "proof" about that, its the same thing as permanently recording you, wich is illegal.
Ots collection of data and as such falls under the strict laws around GDPR.
"Everything I don't like is a GDPR violation" lol
