Why would you need their consent?

I record all my pro teams meeting with OBS in order to be able to watch a part of it in case my attention has been drifting away. It is perfectly legal.

I would totally need their consent if I had any plan to make those videos available to anyone else but that is another subject (diffusion).

Because in some states consent is required before recording a conversation. Regardless of what you plan to use the recording for.

Ok that is just not the law in my country.

I think it is outside the scope of the software to define what one should or shouldn't do depending of every state/country juridiction.

That is not how the law works. It is illegal to record them period.

See reply to comment abovr. Juridictions varies depending on location, I don't think a software developer has to make sure its usage complies with every juridictions, it is up to the users to do that.

[encryptluks2]

Yes, it is up to the user but I was replying to someone that said they record them still and just don't share them. I was stating that is still illegal under the law.

The point here is that laws vary by jurisdiction.
