      Recorder transcribes locally without Internet connection and touching the cloud. I bet this will work the same way. I can’t see them being able to market such a feature that send your calls to the cloud. Not to mention it might be illegal here and there. Wiretapping laws aren’t joking matter. In some places even one party consent isn’t enough.

        You can cling to that and trust Recorder.

        I’ll avoid both like the plague and sit by smugly when the “we accidentally sent it to the cloud” press release is published

          Totally valid take given a threat model where you have zero trust in Google. It also implies there should be no system components from Google on the device though since they have root and they can exfiltrate data accidentally too.

        If it’s all processed locally, and stored either locally or using client-side encryption, then I’m all for it.

        If it’s plugging into their cloud bullshit, no thank you.
