TheMukt reports:
Over the last few days we have seen increased activity on the nightly changelogs which suggest [CyanogenMod has] incorporated a call recording feature into its most recent nightlies. Generally speaking call recording is largely considered very grey in terms of the law and as such it seems CM is not offering this feature as a direct and obvious feature.
Instead what we are seeing is the call recording setting can be activated by the user but does require a little bit of knowledge. This presumably is a way for CM to avoid any direct law breaking. So to be accurate CM [is] now offering support for call recording although not the feature directly.

Exactly. I would've joined Pipedot, but their signup form required I solve a kind of math equation I didn't recognize, then when I got it wrong (duh) it said my registration was being submitted for review even though I'm probably too stupid to leave worthwhile comments! If they don't want anyone that's dyscalculic and/or last took a math class 20 years ago in high school as they didn't major/work in a STEM discipline, then fuck them -- I won't contribute to their site, and they certainly shouldn't be snagging my work from here.

Just put that math equation into google and you get the answer immediately. I find this much better than the normal captchas which I often fail as the letters are too much distorted. Often I end up trying around 3-4 times before passing them. With a clear math problem (and it was a famous formula even, most have been learning by memory) you know you read everything right and the answer, if you do not know it directly, is just one search away.

"required I solve a kind of math equation I didn't recognize"
Oh cool I like math. Yes this is very strange that this finally motivated me to try and sign up for pipedot. But I like math.
"What is the 3rd number in the list twenty seven, 33 and 8?"
I shit you not that is an honest cut and paste of the dreaded math puzzle that I got. Not exactly math grad student level here. Now if one of you people refreshes and gets "Provide a correct proof of the Riemann hypothesis in less than 140 characters" then I'll admit my defeat.

Originally, it asked what is sin²(θ) + cos²(θ)

I googled the math problem I got, the answer was 1. I also had no idea what it actually meant.
