New Apple Watch features may require new legal precedent for privacy

Live Rewind and Siri Recap on new Apple Watch models record conversations via microphones. Lawyers in California, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and Washington doubt Apple's protections (Secure Enclave, 15 seconds, deletion after processing) exempt the owner from all-party consent recording laws.

• Live Rewind activates manually and runs only 15 seconds
• Audio stored in Secure Enclave of S11 chip, inaccessible even to Apple
• In several US states recording without all-party consent is illegal
• Lawyers believe the issue will likely be decided in court
