I am with Jeri on this and believe that it is wrong to record people without thier knowledge in the ICQ and Hearme Events.

Personally I enjoyed the MCR chats and was dissapionted to learn that the archives which ICQ automatically makes are being made public and it is enough to put me off joining in with future chats.

As for Hearme, I feel that recording is going against the spirit of the event and should not take place without the permission of the performer(s) and like Jeri, if that was to become standard practice, I would not be there.
