🛡️ Local Script vs. OS Telemetry Audit

While you build local hydration reminders via PowerShell that run completely offline without transmitting data, Windows background telemetry (DiagTrack/Connected User Experiences) natively catalogs UI events, hardware health, and crash signatures.

💡 Why Build Local Toast Scripts?

Commercial hydration and break apps often bundle analytics or require background browser engines consuming 200MB+ RAM. The Windows 11 PowerShell script below triggers native WinRT toasts with 0 KB idle RAM and leaves zero telemetry traces outside system event tracing.
