AI Thread Summary
In video conferencing software like Teams, Google Meet, Zoom, and Skype, recording permissions typically vary by platform. Generally, the host of the meeting has the primary ability to record the session. For instance, in Google Meet, only the host can record, while in Zoom, participants may also have the option to record, depending on the host's settings. Additionally, users can utilize third-party screen recording software to capture meetings, but it's essential to be aware of legal and company policy implications regarding recording conversations, as laws differ by location.

TL;DR Summary
Call recording permission in video conferencing software.
Do the Host only get the permissions of call recording in video conferencing software?

You can, of course, use your own screen recording software and record the call.

I found a similar documentary in English called The Human Cost of AI: Data workers in the Global South. There is also an interview with Milagros Miceli (appearing in both documentaries) on Youtube: I also found a powerpoint presentation by the economist Uma Rani (appearing in the French documentary), AI...
