No, it is not sponsored or anything like that. It is an ordinary news story. An app update doesn't need 8 paragraphs.

Yeeeeah... I was just thinking, "Is anybody else concerned here about, you know, consent to record?"
Which you can already do with the iPhone or Apple Watch for almost 20 years now

Sure feels like it.

I'm generally not a fan of recording people without their permission or knowledge, which seems to be what many people are doing ('https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/friends-colleagues-recording-conversation') these days.

Zoom notifies all participants that a meeting is being recorded. The recording ability is not a feature of this app, but of Zoom.

As for Zoom... wha a heavy slog! I sure wish they had a more optimized and native Mac app. Zero excuse for these companies taking the "universal" approach to building apps that result in poorly-optimized builds. My M1 can fry an egg when on a Zoom call and screen-sharing. That should not happen.

People are starting to record every single meeting at my workplace. They will even sent you AI generated action lists which are inaccurate and useless most of the time. Same with slop that gets generated by people that have no actual knowledge on a subject. It just shifts the workload to the receiptant. Can you please review this document (I just generated in 5 seconds)? Sure, it will take me two days. It’s getting tiresome.
