TL;DR:
Microsoft Teams is going to soon support an Explicit Recording Consent meeting policy. If the policy is applied by your organisation, the Teams meeting window will request explicit consent of all participants to be recorded. Before you give consent, your audio, video and screen sharing won’t be captured in the meeting recording. Due late March to mid-April 2023.

This feature will be off by default and is an IT admin policy-controlled feature. Admins can choose to enable the feature either for the entire tenant or for specific individuals based on their business needs.

Before a you give consent, your audio, video, and screen share/content-share will be disabled during the meeting and can’t be recorded:
Participants’ consent is logged and can be accessed as part of the Attendance Report.
If you do not consent, you can still view the meeting, you just can’t actively take part…doing so would give that consent.
Availability:
Due late March to mid-April 2023.
