notification privacy

The notification privacy tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about how Windows 11 and related Microsoft features handle the visibility of notification content. Recent threads focus on Windows 11 Insider builds, such as build 26300.9032, which introduced hover previews for phone messages and notifications in the Start menu via Phone Link. This change allows users to read more of an alert without opening the app, raising questions about privacy when notification content is exposed by simply moving the pointer. The tag explores the balance between convenience and privacy in notification handling, including how Microsoft documents these features in release notes and how users can manage or restrict such previews to protect sensitive information.
