Linden Lab Official:Voice Chat Privacy

WebRTC Voice Chat update

	==Security==		==Security==

	~~===Private calls===~~		All voice chat is encrypted and is processed and mixed by servers maintained by Linden Lab. This includes peer-to-peer private calls, spatial, group, and conference calls. The data passed from Resident to Resident by the voice servers is limited to audio, audio level data, and connection status. Identifying information, such as IP addresses, is not passed between the Residents by the voice servers. Linden Lab does not monitor or log spatial chat conversations unless we are troubleshooting quality or technical performance issues.

	~~Private calls between two Residents are ''not''~~ encrypted~~. However, the call does not pass through any~~ Linden Lab ~~or Vivox servers; they are conducted on a peer-to-~~peer ~~basis between the two computers involved. "Peer~~-to-peer~~" means that when you initiate a~~ private ~~voice call~~, ~~your computer connects directly~~ to the ~~other computer for the purposes of~~ voice ~~communication~~.

	~~===Spatial voice chat===~~

	~~Spatial voice chat~~, ~~meaning public voice chat with people who are near you inworld~~, is ~~processed and mixed on~~ servers ~~maintained by Vivox~~. Linden Lab ~~and Vivox do~~ not monitor or log spatial chat conversations unless we are troubleshooting quality or technical performance issues.

Fixed some incorrect references about this function returning region uptime - which is not the case at all. See https://feedback.secondlife.com/scripting-bugs/p/llgettimeofday-fails-to-return-server-up-time
