The privacy-minded Signal messaging service is putting a blindfold on the prying eyes of the newly returned Windows Recall, an AI-powered feature from Microsoft that takes a screenshot of whatever you're doing on your computer every few seconds to give your PC the "photographic memory" you never asked for.

Signal said today that it is updating its Windows app to prevent the system from capturing screenshots, thereby protecting the content that is on display.

Worried that Microsoft Recall might take screenshots of your Signal chats? Don't be. Signal has introduced a new "Screen security" setting for its Windows 11 app that will give users a black screen every time they or the system attempts to take a screenshot.
