Then you'll need to use a camera, or some other manual capture method.

You know what Teams should fix? The ability to go to a browser, find the right gif, copy the URL, and paste it into a group chat and SEE THE GIF INSTEAD OF A LINK.

That sounds preferable. When I copy text, I want that text to be what gets pasted. If I wanted to paste a GIF somewhere, I would have copied the GIF, not its URL. Am I misunderstanding you here?

Every other chat app I've used is smart enough to recognize a gif and include the actual moving image along with the URL itself. Except Teams.

Spoiler: It does not, in fact, prevent recording or screen capture.

This is marketing towards businesses that aren’t tech savvy. It will block a few common functions but ultimately will have no effect on someone who has the slightest bit of technical knowledge.

I hope it’s not turned on at my org. I use a tool to take small screenshots of text that are converted directly to text all the time during meetings. Textsniper

I also often take screenshots of the meeting window to add to my notes as a reminder.

Will they block Recall from screenshotting every conversation also?
