The GDPR does not apply to taking, storing, and processing screenshots locally.

not just the part about the Screenshots being made and locally stored (although that probably would violate other laws)

"Probably" = you have no idea what you're talking about.

Bloating up hard-drives could be ruled as damage to a system, that would be a court matter however.

So we agree that you were wrong about Microsoft violating the GDPR with this software, then.

No you just think its about something i didn't say it was about, you literally took the goalposts for a run.

True or false: You claimed that this software, which takes, stores, and processes screenshots locally, constitutes a violation of the GDPR.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Correct, the processing part is the important one. And thats what I've said.

So your claim is that any software that processes any data entirely locally on a users machine is violating the GDPR?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yes if it doesn't have consent absolutely. Have you read the fucking link i gave you?
