#Microsoft also notes that beyond Edge Browser "private" sessions and DRM-protected content (like movies, natch!) and such, their new full-time spying feature will record essentially all activity on the screen at five second intervals and store it by default for several months. Including, MS notes, personal information (e.g. visible passwords, account numbers, you name it). You couldn't design a system more vulnerable to abuses if you tried. But hey, MS has the talent.
