It’s not difficult to turn off.
It will turn itself back on during a background update, though. Should I be expected to check it daily to make sure Microscam isn't stealing my data?
If you HAVE to use the toilet of an OS. Use a system(machine) startup script that runs a cleanupon every boot. Its a hot mess solution to a hot mess OS. But at the end of the day they cannot be trusted and changes are coming to windows access levels which will prevent the cleanup of “essential” apps, services, and configurations.

That's the right move!
Should not, wonder if there's any adguard/pihole lists to smack OneDrive/box/Dropbox/etc domains and just take these services out before they can start.
Well everything is dandy fine then ? It's no problem if someone does anything without consent as long as you can "easily" do something about it heh ?
Yeah, the body has a way of shutting that whole thing down.
Indeed, it's that rapist mentality, just like Rossmann calls it out in his videos.
Microsoft: It's not difficult to turn back on
It's just an innocent bug that happens every update!
It's not a bug, it's a feature!
