Some people have excellent reasons not to want to be recorded and we
should make sure not to exclude them from DebConf either. Having
non-recorded sessions seems like a good way to make this happen.

I think this would put undue pressure on people to have talks recorded
and would keep people from hosting relevant sessions at DebConf.

I want people to feel free to ask for their session not be recorded. I
think these spaces are getting fewer and fewer in the world we live in.

To me, recording sessions by default is already enough to provide good
content and balance the needs of the remote attendees and those of the
people not wanting to be recorded.
