Streaming Seder
Description
Activating a recording device on Yom Tov or Shabbat is a violation of Shabbat or Yom Tov. Therefore, if a stream is initiated on Yom Tov or Shabbat, it should absolutely be with recording disabled. Typing on a device is a violation of Shabbat, so participants should be encouraged to interact via speech and video, rather than typed messages/text chat. In general, on Shabbat or Yom Tov, we prohibit activities where one might be tempted to perform forbidden labor if something goes wrong. We are aware that that strong temptation exists to do so here if technology fails, and we urge people to be mindful of ways to limit any violations that might result if that happens.
