New York S05070 amends the definition of wiretapping to require consent from all parties present for a recording to be legal.
New York S05070 amends the penal law by redefining "wiretapping." It specifies that wiretapping involves the intentional overhearing or recording of a telephonic or telegraphic communication by someone not a sender or receiver, unless the recording party has expressly informed all present parties that the recording is taking place. This change affects anyone involved in recording conversations, ensuring legal compliance by requiring explicit consent from all parties involved.
