Microsoft Teams: Explicit recording and transcription consent for PSTN participants now available in GCC High and DoD
We are introducing explicit recording and transcription consent support for PSTN participants joining Microsoft Teams meetings in GCC High and DoD environments. This feature is already available in Public and GCC clouds and is now being extended to sovereign environments. After this rollout, when a meeting is being recorded or transcribed, PSTN participants will be prompted to provide explicit consent before they can unmute and participate. If consent is not provided, participants will remain muted for the duration of the meeting. This update aligns PSTN behavior with the existing consent experience in Teams clients and enhances compliance by ensuring all participants actively acknowledge recording and transcription. This rollout may impact PSTN users joining meetings where recording or transcription is enabled. We recommend informing users about this change so they are prepared to provide consent when prompted.
