authorizing "unmute"

Hello,

I realize that authorizing "unmute" sometimes requires the participant to confirm he authorized the host to "unmute", sometimes not.

What is the rule  ?

Confirmation required the first time ? always ?

Confirmation required then from time to time ? frequency ?

or what is the condition leading to requesting confirmation again...

Thank you for your help,

kind regards,

Michel

The host have the settings to let the participants mute and unmute themselves.

I have the same question MIchel25.

 

According to the website:  https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/203435537

 Once consent has been given to a host, any future meetings with this host and this setting enabled will have the same pre-approved consent.

 

But, how does the zoom discern whether a participants has given pre-approved consent or not?

The same name? The same device? The same email address? The same IP address?
