    The Cortana version of it specifically, it seems?

    People tend to overreact to Microsoft announcements (see last week’s panic about an out-of-context policy change for OEMs misreported as a lack of support for older Intel chips), but in fairness MS doesn’t make it easy with the obtuse way they communicate in a whole bunch of areas.

      They don’t make it easy with the constant fucking of their own consumers. It should be expected that people assume the worst because that’s what they’ve been conditioned to expect for the last 10 years.

      We are deprecating and removing the Location History feature, an API that allowed Cortana to access 24 hours of device history when location was enabled. With the removal of the Location History feature, location data will no longer be saved locally and the corresponding settings will also be removed from the Privacy & Security > Location page in Settings.
