This notification is always on when running the new MS Teams on Mac. Even when there are no meetings running. Seems like a major privacy breach?

JTCAN Same issue here - this is either a notifiction bug or a massive provacy problem. Either way it needs addressing ASAP. As it stands I have had to to disable that permission for Teams and re-enable every time I need to share my screen, which is not ideal.

I'm experiencing the same problem. Even after disabling screen recording permissions in System Settings and quitting Teams, the issue persists. It's quite annoying and raises privacy concerns. JTCAN

This is still happening as of 1/27/2023. No processes running in activity monitor as far as I can tell except the audio driver, which has been a problem for years now.

Its 2025 and thousands of people have the same problem but still no fix?? This also could be on apple that their privacy feature doesn't work. How can it still be "recording the screen" if we have removed permissions?? Either teams is running some kind of secret process or apple's privacy notification is broken. Has anyone raised this bug with apple?

    Not sure what the problem was but this worked: answered a call on the web version, didn't let the app open, shared my screen, then stopped sharing. Notification went away.
