In the state of California, it's illegal to record a conversation with someone without getting their permission first; however, it's legal to take notes during the conversation without getting their permission first.
Is it legal to record a conversation without getting permission if you use speech-to-text electronics to take your notes for you?
Answer:
Penal Code section 632 prohibits "recording" a confidential communication with a "recording device." It would seem to me that a "speech to text" device which keeps a record of the conversation would qualify. I believe that people using TTY technology for the hearing impaired are required to give notice of the use of such a device.
no, that would be invading privacy
