It is not genuine to say that Notion cannot listen in. Notion can listen in. Anytime it wants. Yes on Macs an indicator will be displayed - but not always prominently depending on what other apps/devices are being used (for example using continuity camera)

Source: I built the same listening infrastructure into other meeting note taking apps. Our team spoke at length about this security issue with Apple.

I work at Notion. We don't ship code that would let us listen in until users explicitly click start recording. We don't want to, we aren't in the business of selling data and this would be incredibly expensive - and destroy trust. We are cash flow positive so we can sustain our values for the long term. We build useful software and get paid by our users for it. It's pretty simple. Agree that operating systems should display prominent indicators when the microphone is in use.

Side note - why isn't E2E encryption a higher priority for Notion?

If you check Reddit and similar forums, it's been raised so many times by users.

Please tell me which meeting note apps use underhanded methods to secretly record my conversations, just so that I can blacklist them company wide.
