I think you hit the nail on the head. Recall was problematic because of the lack of information provided when they announced it. How would it handle sensitive details like banking account pages. Can developers opt out for best security practices? How is the managed in an enterprise environment?
Once they delayed and got all their ducks in a row it's a much more solid feature. Not for everyone, but a good way to leverage your PC as a source of information that you can search without having to save everything.
The post reads a little childish to me. Very "Micro$hit are greedy and want to steal your data" level of criticism.
What irritates me most about all these unwanted "innovations" is that they always make them opt-out. "If it's opt-in, nobody's gonna use it - and it's such a flawless feature, we should be shoving it down everyone's throats"
Recall IS opt-in. Personally I don't get the big deal. Opt out stuff is just a simple toggle. If they were shoving down everyone's throat you wouldn't be able to opt out of it. Like ads on Google Discover feed.
