> We tell the operating system that every Brave tab is ‘private’, so Recall never captures it.
Without this loophole Recall could take pix of password managers and other such sensitive windows. So it doesn't seem closeable without per app exceptions.
But privacy is a bug on a school laptop used by a child. Brave could have a toggle on the feature if it wants to serve that market.
"The whole principle (censorship) is wrong; it's like demanding that grown men live on skim milk because the baby can't eat steak.” ― Robert A. Heinlein
The opposite is true too. Infants shouldn't be handed knives because grown men need to cut their steak.
I disagree. Most children (including toddlers) can be taught quickly to safely handle even "scary knives" and controlled exposure to real tools with real consequences is actually high value.
You can also give infants who are ready for food meat and other real foods, just keep in mind the lack of teeth.
Your manager would say that privacy is a bug on a corporate laptop used by an employee. Luckily there are a number of countries where the legal framework doesn't let that fly.
If the law required allowing children to use their school owned laptops to browse the web without oversight or limitation, many schools could not provide them and students would lose a very valuable educational tool.
As a teacher it's "I wasn't able to monitor Tommy's screen while I was helping other students, but Tommy is struggling with the material that he usually gets easily and I'd like to know if he was on task. If not I want to bring back his focus; if so I'd like to understand what he has trouble with so I can help."
If you're thinking "just ask", unfortunately students often don't have that level of introspection.
