I'd quite like to record *all* phone calls automatically, and keep them in a similar way to voice messages in the conversation tracker.
I realise there are legal issues, but it would be a nice feature, for referring back to calls.

If I phone in to a call centre and get an automated message saying that "the call may be recorded", then I would take that as permission to record the call. Although I expect that the message is supposed to notify me that the other party intends to record it, it cuts both ways.

You're logic is like saying, if I take my car to a mechanic and sign the estimate for repairs, which is also a waiver giving the mechanic permission to do the repairs, that therefore means that I also have the right to work on the mechanic's car.

Yeah, it really is. My example of the mechanic just makes it more obvious how you're idea seems like it makes sense, but it really doesn't. Just because I grant you permission to do something, doesn't mean you've automatically granted me permission to do the same thing.

I beg to differ, precisely because of the language that they use in my example. Stating "this call may be recorded" can be construed to be both a statement of fact (i.e. that they might be recording the call, and have advised me of that fact) and equally viably, be considered to be granting permission to record the call.
In your car analogy, there should be no such ambiguity, so your analogy fails. The semantics are different.
