This room is educational. It is not legal advice. The rule depends on the place, the parties, and the current text.

Cornell's copy of 18 U.S.C. § 2511(2)(d) says it is not unlawful under that chapter for a person not acting under color of law to intercept a wire, oral, or electronic communication where that person is a party, or where one of the parties has given prior consent, unless the purpose is a criminal or tortious act.

That sentence is one federal exception. It does not say every state uses the same rule. Confirm the current code where the people are.

Telling the person the call is recorded is a learning habit. It is not a finding that your notice was lawful.

Do not record a real person for this lab.

Copy the statute's condition, then write 'confirm the state.' Do not turn the federal sentence into a permission slip.
