The following is in regards to audio recording. I will not speculate on video recording because I am not sure if the law for audio applies the same to video.

There are 12 States in the U.S. That requires ALL parties involved in the conversation (All Party Consent) to be made aware that the conversation is being recorded. These States are:

California

Connecticut

Delaware

Florida

Illinois

Maryland

Massachusetts

Michigan

Montana

New Hampshire

Pennsylvania

Washington

The following 38 States require that at least ONE person (One Party Consent) involved in the conversation has given permission for the conversation to be recorded including the person doing the recording:

Alaska

Arkansas

Colorado

District of Columbia

Georgia

Hawaii

Idaho

Indiana

Iowa

Kansas

Kentucky

Louisiana

Maine

Minnesota

Mississippi

Missouri

Nebraska

Nevada

New Jersey

New Mexico

New York

North Carolina

North Dakota

Ohio

Oklahoma

Oregon

Rhode Island

South Carolina

South Dakota

Tennessee

Texas

Utah

Vermont

Virginia

West Virginia

Wisconsin

Wyoming

This falls under the United States Code: Title 18.2511. As long as you actually take part in the conversation and are doing so in a State that allows "One Party Consent", it is quite legal to record the conversation without another party in the conversation giving permission or even being told that they are being recorded.

Hope that fully answers your question..

What can you do if you are being taped during sex?

If you are being recorded without your consent, it is a violation of your privacy. You can seek legal advice to understand your rights and options for taking action against the person who recorded you without permission. It may also be helpful to talk to a trusted friend, counselor, or support group for emotional support.


What is the penalty for being videotaped without their consent in the state of Texas?

Being taped w/o consent doesn't carry a penalty, that person is a victim - not a criminal. Setting up the taping, that's the crime - but I don't know what the punishment is.


What is the word meaning being video taped without your consent?

Well, I don't think there is a single word used to convey this. Something to consider is that if you are in a public place, and provided you are not a minor, your consent is not required. Simply stated, if you do not want to be video taped, in military parlance, evacuate the AO (Area of Operation), beat feet, kick rocks, get out of the frame.


Can you play a taped conversations to any one who's not in it?

It depends on if the conversation was privileged. ***************************************** Colin is correct. But to add a bit more: It rather depends on what and why the other person needs to hear the tape. If in doubt, ask the person being recorded if it is all right if others hear the recording. Depending on how sensitive or lawful the recording is, get the consent written and signed.

What is Idaho state law regarding police recordings?

Are you talking about having your conversation taped by police? Basically, the rule is at least one person involved in the conversation has to know that the conversation is being recorded, otherwise there needs to be a search warrant. For example, if I were a police officer and I was talking to you, I could record the conversation without your consent or knowledge, because I am involved in the conversation, and I know it is being recorded. However, if I am a citizen talking on the phone to another citizen, a search warrent would be required because neither subject was aware of the recording being made.

Is it legal to video sex without a partners consent in Indiana?

No, it is generally not legal to videotape people having sex without getting consent from all the parties involved. The individual states have their own laws, and there is also a federal law the prohibits video taping someone (without their consent) under circumstances in which that individual has a reasonable expectation of privacy, regardless of whether the individual is in a private or public location. For Indiana take a look at Ind. Code Ann. § 35-45-4-5. Under that statute, "clandestine" or "surreptitious" video taping is considered "peeping". A prosecutor would only have to prove that a person on the tape was not aware they were being taped.
