• How does Copilot know WHO you are?

    I do not log into a Microsoft account on Windows 10.
    I don't even have a Microsoft account to log into.

    Yet, Copilot just said it would "keep an eye out" for me if it finds
    something specific in the future that I am looking for. How can it do that?

    Does Copilot know who I am?
    Or is it just going to keep track for everyone who asks?

    What did I accomplish by saying "yes"?

    =======================
    Would you like me to keep an eye out for updates on this topic?

    yes.

    Got it! I'll keep tabs on any updates about privacy-focused messaging
    apps, particularly those that plan to support SMS, MMS, RCS, and MLS
    later this year. If anything pops up, I'll share the details with you.
    Feel free to check in if you're curious about developments along the way!

    The CoPilot in the MSEdge, assumes your login MSA applies
    to your MSEdge session, and it stores session details
    against that MSA. If I use the CoPilot in the upper right
    of MSEdge, it never asks me to log in.

    The CoPilot App on the other hand, begs you to sign in.
    Which is a weird behavior.

    I suspect CoPilot is using a Service Worker in MSEdge.
    The CoPilot App could be using WebView, in which case
    a parallel structure might exist. I had not expected to
    see an operational Service Worker on the machine, because
    I don't generally allow that. I am tempted to delete it,
    but that could make a mess.

    The only unknown then, is why does the CoPilot App cling
    to the notion it is not saving the session against the
    current owner of the desktop. I don't use the CoPilot App,
    but I did open it long enough to see the request. Am I actually
    going to go find my password and log in ? Ah, No.

    Or maybe it's bluffing and doesn't realize or doesn't care that it
    doesn't know who you are.

    Sort of like all those girls who say to me, I'll invite you to my next
    party

    For obvious reasons, I never use Edge but that's good to know.
    I wonder how it does it when you don't have a MS account?

    Yes. Ten, maybe twenty times a day. And it begs you to converse back, even giving you pre-selected choices for YOUR responses. Gemini doesn't do that.

    I suspect CoPilot is using a Service Worker in MSEdge.

    Hmm. Good start. Or, it could just be Copilot was wrong. It might be like
    when my kids tell me they'll do something but they have no intention of it.

    I'm tempted to remove Copilot but I compare it with Gemini.
    So far (one day) I find gemini far more mature. And less comical.

    I looked it up a bit more and I don't;t think copilot can save sessions so
    I think Copilot assumed I was logged in, when it's impossible to do so.

    I was able to turn off all this crap off in windows 11. But I'm running

    new hardware?

    running it on a very old machine, so maybe you can't do
    that if you have fancy new hardware?

    The CoPilot is passive, and does not involved any more of a privacy
    leak, than the existing structure on the machine. You would
    need to remove all the copies of MSEdge, to have a start at
    privacy.

    If you are not using CoPilot, it's not plotting the takeover
    of the machine while you sleep. I would be a lot more
    interested in the "News and Interests" and the unstoppable
    Location Service that uses. That would be a better use of
    your time.

    I turned it off, Co-Pilot, on my up-to-date PC.

    Yes copilot knows everything about you, Arlern. It has an Artificial Intelligence built in and it knows how to use it effectively.

    Have you been living under a rock abusing young boys? AI is here and it
    is able to know everything about users of Windows System whether
    knowingly or unknowingly.

    You better stop using Windows and use something else or stop abusing
    young boys.

    "It has an Artificial Intelligence built in"?? Really?? So our little
    Desktop or Laptop Computers are 'big enough' to house a full-blown AI!! Really??

    I had thought it might have just been phoning home to MS and making use
    of THEIR greater Resources. But what would I know?? Not much, it seems!!

    Have you been living under a rock

    Obviously!! ;-P
