transcribe voice messages for free

Not really. It's limited to two per week.

With this update, all users can convert up to 2 messages per week into text

Official Telegram release blog post.

Per WEEK? Wow, that's so stingy I wouldn't even bother announcing it lol

At first I thought this is about letting random users transcribe 2 voice messages a week.

That would have been very weird and uncomfortable, but this limitation makes me think that the messages are uploaded to a transcription service.
If it would be run by Telegram, that's not really a problem as they already have access to the message contents, but if it's through a 3rd party.. how can I disable this for anyone for my messages?

Also, I expect this limitation to later be eased for premium users.

You got it wrong.

See the linked post. Transcription has been available for premium users for a while now.

Now free users get two per week too.
