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.

I still use Recall on my development laptop, and actually use the feature quite a lot through testing Recall... and yet, I've started to get regular engagement prompts to use it lately.
To me this strongly suggests people aren't actually using it in the wild as MS are trying to juice numbers via nudge prompts.
On a separate note I also got prompted to change my default browser to Edge (I use Vivaldi) and my search engine to Bing when switching on my laptop today 🤦
