Signal’s new Windows update prevents the system from capturing screenshots of chats

Signal has updated its Windows app to address a vulnerability where screenshots could expose sensitive content, introducing "Screen Security" as a default feature on Windows 11. This new setting aims to counteract Microsoft's Recall feature, which captures system activity for historical purposes, though it still may affect functions like screen readers when enabled. Users can disable the feature through Signal Settings > Privacy > Screen security with confirmation required. Signal hopes Microsoft considers privacy implications more carefully in its AI-driven features.
