So, it says you can`t monitor a person if there`s an expectation of privacy for the purpose of sexual gratification, but does that mean I can or can film the sexual acts of me and my girlfriend and put them on a website? Isn`t that okay, because it`s like a conversation I`m in? Isn`t that what happens to celebrities? Your friend films it and puts it on the internet and it`s completely legal? I want to do that?

This means that both people participating in a recorded conversation must agree that the conversation will be recorded.

In such a scenario, you could be held liable for criminal and civil charges, regardless of the state the other party to the registration is in. Such situations can also occur if you suspect your spouse is having an affair during a business trip or vacation and decide to have a personal private investigation that involves recording various conversations.
