No, hangouts is now google chat, meet is what was previously google duo.
Yeah can totally happen, and we'll be pretty sad but this started as a fun project so it'd be pretty cool that google changes their api because of us.

Also I'll be doing some research on similar extensions on why they are not banned.

It uses browser blob storage to store the recording.

We also plan to add these searchable transcript, summaries and other features but depends on if this stays up :)

Yeah surely I'll be adding disclaimers, thanks.

But I'm curious why hasn't google banned other chrome extensions that record google meets and all of them are either paid or free with some limitations, so we're not the only ones bypassing premium gsuite.

It uses screen recording apis provided by chrome itself. Also there are many such chrome extensions that record google meets but all of them are either paid or free with some limitations, so we're not the only ones bypassing premium gsuite.
Can we solve this by putting a disclaimer in extension home page that it is upto the user to inform all parties and take their consent before recording ? Not really sure how to solve this, would love feedback.

Hey everyone, my friend and I created this browser extension for developers as a toolset to manage browser storage(local/session/cookies).Though this was started with just the share feature where in you can share storage across tabs (personal use case for Rahul in his organisation which inspired StorageX), but it has grown into a multi-featured toolset to manage all browsers storages.And plan...

They are good, but lack webcam which is a necessity for anyone using it for work.

They already expect you negotiating the offer that's why they lowballed on your expectations. 40 to 30 is already 1/4th of a cut in negotiations.

Just call them up and say all the nice things like great company, thanks for taking time, but then start counting your strengths and finally say that I think I bring a lot more value and these were my expectations and please think and talk about this internally and let me know.

They will most probably come back with a higher number.
