Enhancing meeting privacy for copied Calendar events

Enhancing meeting privacy for copied Calendar events

What’s changing
When users copy or duplicate events in Calendar, the Meet conference won’t be copied over. This ensures that Meet access and meeting notes remain tied to the original event and its attendees. If the user intends to participate in the same Meet conference, they can copy over the Meet code separately.

Why this is important
This change enhances meeting privacy, security and reliability by keeping the meeting code unique to the original event. This isolates each meeting, ensuring only invited guests can join and that artifacts like recordings and notes are shared exclusively to the correct participants. It reduces the current system ambiguity where a single code shared across multiple events can lead to misdirected information.
