Our privacy is Microsoft & other tech bros secondary market. All privacy & security settings need to be set to off and windows 11 has two places to turn off; one under apps and one in settings, privacy & security, general. Make sure you remove your browser's Extensions. Keep your footprint private

Well, there's new browser apis that require this. Not nice from a privacy perspective though, mine is off as well.
