I found an interesting Microsoft Recall issue with the latest version - Recall is enabled on my PC, but the tray icon (bottom right) saying it is running is missing.

Edit: after a reboot, it's back.  I'll keep an eye on it.  After the latest Windows Update the UI wasn't visible, but it was still recording.

Brave are blocking Microsoft Recall by default, hopefully Vivaldi follow.  https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/brave-blocks-windows-recall-from-screenshotting-your-browsing-activity/

The Register took a look at Microsoft Recall and found it captured personal information, such as social security numbers and such in its database.

They also found they could access it remotely using TeamViewer, using just a PIN.
