It's as if Microsoft decided that people who haven't already left Windows either have no choice or just don't care, so they will tolerate everything.Microsoft is not wrong

A few days ago I installed CachyOS, and I'm in the middle of transferring stuff from Windows. I, who used them all - MS-DOS, 3.11, 95, 98, you name it. I'm tired, boss.by orphea

Damn it. I guess I have to contact my friends who use Windows to warn them and to be sure that no photo that includes me is exposed to this system.by JohnFen

Make sure nobody uses photos with Apple, Google, or Meta either.Sorting photos by people is a convenient feature popping up everywhere.

Yes indeed! Fortunately, I've already talked about these things with my friends and family, and they care about and respect me enough to keep images of me out of these services. I just need to be sure they know to exclude me from this one as well.by JohnFen

The full title is:> Windows 11 is quietly installing OneDrive Photos, and it wants to scan your photos for faces if you allow it

It’s the OneDrive installing new OneDrive Photos app. It happens on any Windows version, such as Server 2025 that has OneDrive installed.It isn’t limited to Windows 11.
