Can A Third Party Watch You Video Chat On Skype On Phone

Can I rewind a Skype video chat?

skype doesn't record your video sessions. you'd have to get 3rd party software like pamela to record the session so you can re-watch it. http://www.pamela.biz/en/

How do you know if a Skype video call is being recorded?

In most countries of the world, there are strict laws about video surveillance and audio eavesdropping. In theory, if your call is being recorded by the person your talking to, they would have asked your permission first. In some regions, they play a “beep” sound over the connection during the recording.Of course, if you are worried, it probably means that you don’t trust the person you are talking to. Unfortunately, there is no way of knowing whether your call is being recorded. Ultimately, the other party could use her mobile phone or camera, point it at the screen, and record the conversation with absolutely no software or technical capability.If you are worried about Skype itself, or a law enforcement authority recording your call… well, in most countries of the world, it is a requirement to provide legal access to call records and the ability to record calls of an individual who is a suspect in an investigation.There are other apps/programs, such as Wire (ask me for others if you need other examples), that market themselves on their security or privacy by virtue of using end-to-end encryption and using open-source software that can be inspected for “backdoors”.Having said that, Skype is a great way to stay in touch, with many health benefits that should outweigh the privacy concerns for most applications — especially if you’re caring for someone older.
