how in the hell do they think this is going to go over in It for corporate America with sensitive data on everyone's workstations?? what about the rest of the world ?
This will go over extremely well. (for the CEOs) Management, ignoring all advice by the company's IT people, will order them to enable Recall to "improve productivity" because one guy on LinkedIn said it made him one quattuordecillion percent more productive, IT will protest but will be inevitably shot down. Everything will be fine for a bit until some attacker inevitably gets into their systems and steals the Recall data from all their active workstations, leading to the compromise of almost every system they have.
They offer their customers 1 free year of credit monitoring, promise to do better, never get punished by the law, rinse and repeat.
Meanwhile, the CEO's paycheck will never take a hit no matter what they do.
I can't imagine there's any way someone with an enterprise license can't either switch this off or, more likely, capture it internally. Will wait for a windows enterprise admin to confirm or deny.
Well it's currently opt in for normal users, and yes you can create a group policy to ensure it is disabled on all managed devices.

No chance they would ever launch this without it being manageable, they would get sued to oblivion by the government pertaining to clearenced information.
They'll turn it off.
