Sony does not deny listening to your recorded voice chats, are you ok with this?

[PS5 Pro]

Engadget is now a part of Verizon Media

Sony later updated its announcement blog post to explain that the notification is related to new features on the PS5, and today it went into more detail about how that works. According to the PlayStation Blog post, while voice chats won’t be monitored or listened to actively, on the new system there is an option to report harassment that includes up a voice chat clip of up to 40 seconds in length, trimmed from the most recent five minutes. There is no opt-out of this — if you use voice chat on PS5, someone in your chat can clip your audio and submit it for review by the moderation team.

While voice chats wont be listened to (this is where the period should go ) actively.

Now with millions of gamers online at once, how could they "actively" listen to voice chats. So actively was NEVER on the table anyway. Where lying is MANDATORY up to their same old tricks
And there is no opt out, what's to stop the feds from posting up in your chats. Nothing in this says anything about them recording you and then listening to these recordings at a later time. You know, instead of actively listening

Spoiler

The PS5 is as big as it is because each system comes with a government issued tracking device

I think if you're online you should expect this, so keep your private life as private as you want to

 

[GreenGrass]

for most people, none of this matters. i am glad SONY protects me from people like yourself

 

[Monsanto]

Where lying is mandatory

My 4ktv recently had to be terminated do to human error.

So I'm currently using a PlayStation 3dtv that is 24? 27in maybe

Who you fooling


You BEEN using that 3D TV.

Talking about terraflops and true 4K and not being able to utilize it.

 

[PS5 Pro]

[Hood Critic]

Anything for fake outrage, you're hilarious.

"Microsoft is watching and listening to me"

[Greenhornet]

[Macallik86]

As black people, we about to eat off of this. That n-word won't come out so quick when other gamers have to worry about a perma-ban from PSN.

Spoiler

Also, I don't get what people think will be weird. What kinda sus shyt are yall saying in a chat room with mostly (all?) dudes?

 

[Ironman]

So white people should be catching major heat on gta then correct?

I see you still being a dumbass as usual and lack reading comprehension. And we talked about this 3 days ago.

They've clearly stated they don't record.

It's user controlled meaning you as the user can record and send to Sony aka snitch on other players in your party.

Sony: 'We Do Not Record' PS4 Party Chats



Update: Sony has also issued the following statement on the matter: "Following this update, users are seeing a notification about Party Safety and that voice chats in parties may be recorded. Voice chat recording for moderation is a feature that will be available on PS5 when it launches, and will enable users to record their voice chats on PS5 and submit them for moderation review. The pop up you’re seeing on PS4 right now is to let you know that when you participate in a chat with a PS5 user (post-launch), they may submit those recordings from their PS5 console to SIE."

Original story: PlayStation 4 firmware update 8.00 really has caused a bit of a kerfuffle, hasn't it? As well as breaking everyone's friends list and making the act of putting together a party much tougher than it needs to be, there's now speculation doing the rounds that Sony is actively listening in on these virtual get-togethers. This all started on social media, of course, as users began sharing screenshots which seemed to indicate the claim. However, it's not Sony doing the recording.

The message being passed around states: "Please be aware that voice chats in parties may be recorded and sent to us by other users. By participating in voice chat, you agree to your voice being recorded." The key point here is that the users taking part in the party chat are the ones doing the recording, not the hardware manufacturer. These recordings, made by PS4 owners, could then be used as proof of Community Code of Conduct violations. The PlayStation UK support Twitter account reinforces this with the tweet you see below.

this functionality has been around since the current-gen system launched back in 2013. The Japanese giant has included the point in its software usage terms for seven years — it's not something Sony has suddenly sprung on us earlier today.

How about always online being the devil, but now there's a ps4 digital version and nobody saying shyt about losing your games if you get banned

Now you might get banned if you talk like a street nikka does. Your entire library might get snatched by Sony

do not make your broke boy shyt about race... I will slap Phil Spencer out your mouth

This website is mostly white guys, and a lot of them act like they black online. Race finds a way around here, they manipulate "you people" it's actually a game they play. Pay attention and you'll spot them..

You live in an alternate reality, reality is black ppl are oppressed. That will not change. Just think about what you are saying. You think Sony created a feature to help black gamers As soon as you act you black you can kiss your entire collection goodbye. White ppl are not the only ppl who say unruly shyt. You think once black ppl talk like we talk there won't be any bans?

As for the sus you speaking on, you can't fukk around at all on playstation cuz who is in one your chat? Why not have a cop in place to record a valued suspect. You think Sony gonna say no?

And you're certain they won't set you up, right?
You're being Carlton banks levels of naive all in the name of Sony. When Phil Spencer says bethesda isn't going anywhere you guys was like "well he didn't say never" but when Sony like you getting recorded you just act like it's all good.

have some dignity

It warns you in advance that the party chat owner can start recording you when you join. if you that stupid to join a chat where a cat might record you doing saying dumb shyt and send it to Sony, I don't know what to tell you.
