According to Microsoft’s documentation, a user can only change the setting to enable or disable the new People section three times a year.
- However, it is that seemingly arbitrary three-times-a-year limit applied to the People section that is most concerning. Why not four? Why not as many times as a user wants? - Possibly because deleting or recreating the data is resource-intensive on the servers. It might actually be a good sign that Microsoft really removes the data, not just mark it inactive, when you turn the feature off. 
- It’s 3 because - On Off On - Now wait 1 year - exactly - default: on - user: explicitly turns off - random “update”: defaults back on - Now wait 1 year 
 
- “Microsoft OneDrive is rolling out AI face recognition for your photos.” To disable (for now), go to Privacy & Permissions → People section. (if you are in EU, maybe it is deactivated by default) source: https://x.com/ProtonDrive/status/1978109833690665463 - #microsoft #onedrive #privacy #ai
