Windows 11 is testing a new privacy setting called 'Presence sensing' that allows users to control whether applications can detect when actively interacting with the device. This feature can significantly impact a Windows 11 user's privacy, responsiveness, and performance. Microsoft does not collect images or metadata; all processing is done locally on the device's hardware. Users can find these settings under Settings > Privacy & security > Presence sensing, provided their device supports it.
