    Recall won’t take snapshots of […] DRM-protected content.

    At least the movie industry will survive this unscathed. Thanks Microsoft. 👍

      If its processed locally and sent nowhere, why is this a concern? Unless otherwise.

      Edit: I phrased it wrong. If MS claims its processed locally, and is like a second eye, why they would provide an exception to DRM contents. This could mean that some data might get sent to MS servers and transfer of DRM content is banned, this poses a legal risk. Who knows.

        The non-fun answer is that they’re most likely just using the default screenshot mechanism, which already blocks that. Other programs like KeePassXC, which also hides itself from screenshots and recordings (unless allowed) will probably not be included either.

        Because I absolutely do not trust microsoft to not have some information going back to a server somewhere.

          I think you’ve misunderstood the comment above. They’re asking why snapshotting DRM-protected content would be a problem if everything stays local, implying that since it’s a problem it does not stay local

      KeepassXC seems to register as DRM protected content (I think…) for me, kills moonlight streams while it’s up so at the very least using a password manager (which you already should be using) would be protected?

      I already daily drive debian on my lab computer and laptop, guest I’ll be swapping my desktop over in the not to distant future…
