Why would Samsung add the call recording feature to just ONE S23 phone?

Why would Samsung add the call recording feature to just ONE S23 phone, that's the stupidest thing they ever did 

[DanG92263]

The call recording feature is available on most s23 series phones, and other models, around the world, but has run into a snag in the USA due to the varied and complex federal and multiple state laws.

NYC has no law against call recording, least samsung could have done was add the feature for the states that allow it

[DanG92263]

And how would they ensure that the phone wouldn't be sold or travel out of the great state of New York?

Location

It's more complicated than just that.

What if the person your calling is in another state that requires both parties to consent? How does Samsung determine their location?

How does Samsung comfirm that anyone being recorded has consented to ensure compliance with the law?

That's very true, okay so if I live in NY and my laws say YES. Then I should have the right to record its only one consent...if the other person doesn't have the right then they can't record. OR better yet the recorded call can't be shared if they other persons laws don't allow it. People get recorded all the time and go viral from around the world

[DanG92263]

Samsung use to have the ability to record calls in the Samsung Phone app, but dropped it. I can only assume that they got sued in court and they decided the liability was too great. But whatever the reason, I doubt it will be coming back in the US.

They picked it back up, as u said early the call recording is available on other galaxy phones

"... as u said early the call recording is available on other galaxy phones"

Yes, available in other countries, not on any Samsung phone in the US, on a US carrier.
