I didn't mention Albania, I mentioned States (as in States within the United States of America) that require 2 party consent for recordings meaning you need to get the consent of the person you're recording
I'm not a lawyer, but I'd imagine in court it would be extremely hard to argue that by having a phone number the person consented to you recording their children, just a hunch but that wouldn't work out well for them...
2 part consent laws are a joke for businesses, all they need to do is tell you you're being recorded. haven't you ever called ANY customer service number anywhere and heard "calls may be recorded for quality assurance purposes"?
Blizzard will have TOS that says your voice chat is recorded.
ALSO you don't have any expectation of privacy in a voice chat lobby since it is a bunch of people and not a 1 on 1 phone call.
Employers also routinely record their employees and its legal, same concept as a video game.
But children involved so as I said, good luck arguing that in court
Plus TOS doesn't stand up to legal precedent, courts will routinely throw it in the bin if any part of it tries to supercede their authority in any way.
