Nah, this would stop a lot of threats.
I'm an example of that threat. I'm a freelancer who often has video calls with new clients. Sometimes I surreptitiously screen cap demos or presentations. It would be very difficult to use a phone that way without breaking the conversational flow.
Other supposed workarounds would require much more preplanning. Like I'd need to know that there was something worth capturing.

- stevage 1y agoYep, I already covered workarounds that would be possible with preplanning.
- Dylan16807 1y agoIf you already do it regularly, then the preplanning is not a big barrier. You already know that you keep getting into situations where something is worth capturing. HDMI capture with passthrough is $20.
- bolognafairy 1y agoAre you genuinely not reading the comments that you’re replying to? OP did mot solicit or show that there would be any value in people listing ways that one could circumvent this with preparation. We all know. You aren’t adding anything to the discussion. Nerds love ignoring the cost of human effort if it gives them an opportunity to show that they know something.
- Dylan16807 1y agoI'm definitely reading the comments. I'm replying to a very specific comment that made a very specific argument. There are lots of arguments I find convincing for this being effective. But not OP's. OP is saying they already do these recordings regularly, but "preplanning" would stop them? No way. They already did all the necessary preplanning by the time they finished typing their comment. Preplanning could be meaningful for other people, but not for them and people like them. I only mentioned price to make it clear that the level of effort to make the purchase falls within the level of effort they have already established.
- PeterStuer 1y agoPreplannig? As in putting your phone in front of your keyboard and hitting record?
- prmoustache 1y agoI record all my calls with OBS because I know sometimes my mind drift off especially when people are going off topic for a while or part of the call is not relevant to me and I want to be able to get back to it if I missed something important. I have a systemd timer that clean files older than 24h at startup because the point is not to archive content without consent. If I ever can't do that I would just use an usb3 screen capture card and record from a second device.
