[asterisk-biz] Recording Consent

[Matthew Rubenstein]

	Ah, but is it legal to replay it? Everywhere? Because I can see
copyrights being invoked to protect people, as well as "self
incrimination", at least in the US with a top-notch lawyer. Especially
with the jurisdictional questions so messy. When was the last time
Canada "upgraded" its telecom laws covering these kinds of recordings?
When's the next time scheduled?
