I keep being told that events on Zoom cannot be recorded because of
the GDPR, unless every participant agrees. I am wondering about this.
If you record the speaker only (with consent) and no interventions
take place (because everyone is muted), would it be possible to
extract the names of all the participants from the recording? If not,
I cannot see why their consent would be needed.

Thanks for that but I am really questioning whether the audience are 'participants' if they are muted and off screen. If the main speaker
is recorded (with consent) does the Zoom recording then contain any recoverable data - images or participant names - of anyone else?

Since we are all allowed to record any conversation we have with anyone (provided we are present) and don't have to tell them we are recording
them, never mind ask their permission, how is it any different on some
fancy Zoom thing?
The only exceptions I can think are in a court of law.
Our rights are ours, not given to us by the authorities.

Most 'rights' are given by Parliament.

What 'rights' do you then have wrt using the recording you made of a "conversation with anyone" without their permission?
The only exceptions I can think are in a court of law.

Erm, legally, our 'rights' are what we have under the law of where we are. And I assume both the 'authorities' and these laws vary from country to country. However...
Does not someone who was recorded without their permission also have some 'rights' wrt what use you then can make of the recording, or who you allow
to see/hear it?
I'm asking because I don't know. But I'd have assumed the person recorded without their permission *also* has some relevant 'rights' here.

I "record" every word in my memory.
I can recall, and tell, everything I hear to anyone.
