TLDR:
Windows 11 v24H2 and beyond will have Recall installed on every system. Attempting to remove Recall will now break some file explorer features such as tabs.

A browser, which is like the prime attack vector for malware and other nasty stuff, having direct memory access is so hilarious in hindsight

These days you try to sandbox everything as much as possible in the browser since the internet is like the least trusted environment there is
