Sub for any gaming related content!

Rules:

1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

It doesn't bring up any issues to record people for moderation purposes, if it's in the Terms of Service of whatever service/game you're using. Agreeing to the ToS is a form of contract. CoD's voice chat, for example, is already monitored and recorded.

Also, as voice recognition with AI is getting better, so will the effectiveness of those moderation tools. Not just in terms of speed but also in terms of cost.

Just because they're already doing it doesn't mean there's no issues with it.

Well, there aren't. If people sign a contract and aren't aware of what it says, that's their own problem. And gaming is a commodity, so it's not like you HAVE to sign that contract if you disagree with it. Just don't play the game then.

You can say there's no issues with that system as many times as you like but it's not going to make it true. Some people definitely disagree with you on that point and I know that because I'm one of them. You don't seem all that interested in having that opinion challenged so I'm not going to bother writing out why here but I've said more on the topic in this thread if you'd like to understand another perspective more clearly.
