By Default, Signal Doesn't Recall

Can browsers block recall recording as well?
I'll add that to every site manage
Let recall literally record only black boxes, fuck Microsoft
-
Given this reality, private messaging apps like Signal deserve to be treated with at least the same level of caution that’s afforded to a web browser’s private or incognito browsing window — which Microsoft has already excluded from Recall by default.
-
I'd like it to be an HTTP header that will blacken the browser for recall. I don't want recall to look at my banking website, just as an example.
Hell, I don't want Recall, period, but I mean, if I managed a banking site, I'd want to know that a million customers aren't inadvertently feeding their private banking info to some shitty AI

They can, but this wouldn't be a website thing, it'd be the whole browser. Not a bad thin, IMO, Recall is cancer that no one but Microsoft board members & investors are asking for.
I predict privacy-preserving browsers like Librewolf, Waterfox, etc. potentially deploying the same "DRM for a good cause" approach Signal is using.

I didn’t realize an app could do that. Won’t most apps just make it an option or enforce blocking recall?
-
What Signal is doing is a workaround specifically used for DRM content. This feature is specifically so you can't copy copyrighted content. I don't think most apps would do this.
According to Microsoft, Recall is opt in. I don't fucking trust them though.
-
Opt in probably just means you can't view the results of recall 🫠
