How do I turn off voice reporting in Fortnite?

To turn off voice reporting in Fortnite (if you're 18+), go to Settings > Account & Privacy > Voice Reporting and select "Off When Possible," but it remains on in public game channels; for under-18s, it's always on, so you must mute your mic or turn voice chat off entirely in Audio settings. For players 18+, "Off When Possible" works in friend parties, but if anyone in your group or a random player in a public channel has it on, it activates, so you can only fully stop audio capture by muting yourself or disabling voice chat.
