 I’m surprised that you’re not aware of the laws on this (or lack of).
There are only a small number of states with all party consent laws, most
are single party.  You just can’t record a third-party conversation where
you are not involved, and they don’t know you’re recording.

It leads to a complexity that I’m trying to help a customer with now.  What
if someone in AZ (single party) calls a person in CA (all party)?  Further,
what if the server is in AZ, but the caller is in an all party state, and
they call a single party state?  Etc.
