Windows Recall sounds like a privacy nightmare
That won't do anything. Desktop images are not protected by DRM, and it's (at least mostly) not visible anyway if you're using the computer.

I have a wide monitor. I could have a Netflix movie playing in a side browser window when I want privacy. It'll be fun to mess with it.

I expect it would just blank out the movie window in the screenshots, leaving the rest visible. The way to get privacy is to turn it off or use another OS.

The only way is to use another OS. There are way too many other privacy leaks, many of which can't be turned off at all.

recall could come in handy as long as it has a "start record" and "stop record" button with an indicator like a red light when it is recording
