Why do you think it's needed to record all conversations to "keep proper tabs"? That's purely a gut feeling based on no data at all.
Aviation is by far the safest form of transportation. In the last 10 years of data (2012-2021) there were a total of 2 passenger fatalities on US airlines across several billion passengers for that time period [1].
If you want to start recording workplaces to improve safety, there are a lot of industries to look at before aviation.

- lttlrck 3y agoWe already looked at policing. Police unions have a similar stance about body-cams? They are more invasive because they follow officers to the bathroom, and I am sure they're are safety/effectivenes stats that argue those are unnecessary. Most civilians don't seem to have much sympathy.
- t0mas88 3y agoPolice unions indeed have similar objections. That's why police officers can turn their cameras on and off themselves, so they are not recorded when talking to a colleague or going to the bathroom: https://www.engadget.com/police-reform-bill-body-cameras-215036775.html https://www.engadget.com/police-reform-bill-body-cameras-215...
