This is in the native phone app. I’m in the US. Definitely didn’t have this feature before. It announces when you start recording.

I know it’s been a thing with some other phones and in other countries, but hey it’s cool to have it on my Pixel 8.

      Suggesting that I need some other party’s permission to record is as absurd as saying I need their permission to remember.

        you can record without consent if you want. but you can be sued and pay damages if the recording goes in public/you share it with other people etc in some countries is ilegal to record without consent.

          No, I can be sued and ignore the court with impunity because there’s a thing called “jurisdiction” and they don’t have it.

          You don’t seem to get it: there is absolutely nothing wrong with me recording without the other party’s knowledge and they have no power to impose their will on me otherwise because the governing law is the one in my jurisdiction, not theirs!

          Don’t like it? Too bad.
