Well, I don’t know how long this has been a thing or how prominent it is. I haven’t seen it in the more mainstream news channels, this thread was my first notice. I expect if people start to freak out in larger, more mainstream circles they may want to address it. Right now it’s only reached a few people, I think.
There’s been a lot of youtube videos made on the tech side of it. But, like I say they all make a fair point. It’s installed, enabled and hidden. But none of them have shown any evidence of it actually collecting data yet.
This arrived in the 24H2 windows update I think it was about a week ago.
Frankly that sounds like “OK, I did install a camera in your bedroom, but it’s not like it’s on or anything!”
Definitely. And it’s actually “We installed a camera in your bedroom, but it’s hidden, you cannot remove it. It’s enabled but don’t worry it’s not recording”.
I just ideally would like Microsoft to say something. Because at the moment it’s super weird to enable it on PCs that it’s not meant to run on.
