If one chats/mails with a person using Windows, despite using secure private protocols, every message will be stored by Microsoft's Windoze Recall. Either I'm missing something but this feature seems like the most grotesque breach in online privacy/security.

What are ways to avoid this except for using obfuscated text?

Wow, valid issue.

Spitballing, potentially a secure app could run memory only, blah, blah, blah. Nope, you've given M$ your screen FFS, it's all over. If you care, move elsewhere, tell your friends...

As you point out, codes are an option, but it's not a slippery slope, it's a waterslide.
