    Of cause they will have permission. It’s in the TOS and EULA if you don’t want to have them doing it you will have to use something else.

    This is 100% a core feature and will break windows if you disable it. You know, until Europe says we have to let people disable it then we will only allow European versions disable it.

    Unless you are an enterprise than you can flip these 2 registry keys and that group policy to disable it, but we will revert that setting every time we update the software, which will be about every month.

      Hey, nobody is stopping your country from enforcing things like the EU.

    It could be fun to implement this under *NIX for fun — cronjob to take screenshots, some OCR, throw it in a database…I’d never want to use this “feature” but as an academic exercise it could be a fun project.

    But having it implemented by my OS, and not by me…yikes. No thanks.

      Microsoft implements screenshot malware as Windows core feature that cannot be REALLY disabled without breaking the system.

        The only silver lining is that it might be relegated to ARM systems initially, so we’ve all got time to figure out a plan to shift to Linux.

    Having Windows installed on your PC counts as permission right?

      That is certainly what MS will claim within their TOS. Best solution when possible, is to not use Windows.
