Under s. 968.31 and 968.27, it is not necessarily illegal for an individual who is a party to or has consent from a party of an in person or electronic communication to record and or disclose the content of said communication, unless the person is doing so for the purpose of committing a tortious or criminal act.  Under s. 885.365 (1), evidence obtained as the result of the recording a communication is "totally inadmissible" in civil cases, except where the party is informed that the conversation is being recorded and that evidence from said recording may be used in a court of law.
