🩹(frontend) fix access control for screen recording feature flag

Ensure screen recording is properly disabled when the feature
flag is set to false.

Previously, no feature flag was enforced, allowing unintended
access.

Also update the blocked-access message to be more generic and not
specific to public sector users.
