I'll keep tabs on any updates about privacy-focused messaging apps, particularly those that plan to support SMS, MMS, RCS, and MLS later this year. If anything pops up, I'll share the details with you. Feel free to check in if you're curious about developments along the way! > ======================= The CoPilot in the MSEdge, assumes your login MSA applies to your MSEdge session, and it stores session details against that MSA. If I use the CoPilot in the upper right of MSEdge, it never asks me to log in. The CoPilot App on the other hand, begs you to sign in. Which is a weird behavior. I suspect CoPilot is using a Service Worker in MSEdge. The CoPilot App could be using WebView, in which case a parallel structure might exist. I had not expected to see an operational Service Worker on the machine, because I don't generally allow that. I am tempted to delete it, but that could make a mess. The only unknown then, is why does the CoPilot App cling to the notion it is not saving the session against the current owner of the desktop. I don't use the CoPilot App, but I did open it long enough to see the request. Am I actually going to go find my password and log in ? Ah, No. Paul
