I doubt that. It’s preinstalled and enabled for personal users.

Even if it is enabled by default on pro/enterprise, there will probably be a group policy to disable it.

It feels like this was intended for buisnesses to monitor for phrases on your screen like "coolmath games unblocked free"

or to extract and upload a summary of what happened every second of every day to the server defined in the group policy.

I doubt it. There are plenty of tools that already do this if that was what they wanted, they’d just model it after those. Storing it locally isn’t how such tools usually work, they get shipped off to a remote server for ingestion.
