OneDrive's Controversial AI Face Recognition Policy
The recent discovery regarding OneDrive's AI-driven face recognition feature raises significant privacy concerns. Users are automatically opted-in, with the ability to opt-out only three times a year, which feels restrictive and invasive. While Microsoft claims that privacy is a priority, many users may feel their biometric data is not adequately protected. "Privacy is built into all Microsoft OneDrive experiences" may not resonate with those wary of surveillance. - The lack of transparency surrounding these settings is troubling. - Users deserve more control over their data and how it is used. This policy could lead to a backlash against OneDrive, as users seek alternatives with more robust privacy measures. Overall, Microsoft's approach appears to prioritize convenience over user autonomy, which is concerning.
