That is exactly one of the questions that has to be handled in reviewing the legalities.There is no issue with consent here. Reuben clearly was aware that Jace was recording the conversation. It's strongly implied that Reuben may have even asked Jace to record it. Reuben didn't start bitching about consent law until after Jace mentioned that he was going to post it. Consent law is about consenting to being recorded, not about consenting to publicity.
Besides I'm talking about a fact-agnostic discussion rather than something highly dependent on the circumstances. As I've said before, even if Jace was totally in the wrong as far as the law is concerned, the odds of him actually getting prosecuted are miniscule, particularly given what we both acknowledge: both parties consented to a recording.
