Be careful with Zoom guys.

Edit: It seems that they have updated their TOS , however I will never trust a company like this , remember with all of this AI going around right now Data is the new oil.

    They got on the map because they were easier to use, which was a reputation earned by doing things like hijacking pre-install verification scripts to install it, running an always on and non-uninstallable server on your computer without you knowing, so it could access your webcam without needing to open the app, faking system prompts to get your root password…

    Then there was lying about end to end encryption being enabled, and sending the unencrypted traffic to China for no discernable reason

    Zoom is just a shitty company that has never been on the right side of user privacy. They’ll do anything to make a buck.
