There is no analogy above: you snipped the paragraph that contained it:
"When you commence your call, both you and the person at the other end
probably exchange some pleasantries, which confirm that you're both
who you say you are. These all get recorded too."
IOW before the substantive conversation takes place, information is
exchanged along the same channel, and can be recorded along with it.
Similarly, ssh clients and servers exchange information about each
other, and information that is about one end can be captured at the
other end in the logs, all before the user's own data starts to flow.
Legality has nothing to do with it, as telephones, tape recorders and
computers aren't human beings. (Debian-user is a technical list.)
Cheers,
David.
