Zoom needs to clean up its privacy act

I hear people talk about meetings not working for them. I can't understand the issue. I've used it for many years across groups that are small or large, personal, commerical, whatever, macs, all phones, linux, windows.

At my new company they wanted to pay a license to use zoom. I asked why don't we just use meetings for free? The answer was it makes us look professional. That's where zoom is. There are dozens are alternatives.

I think zoom's secret sauce is meeting reliability and quality. You can consistently communicate without audio hiccups and other issues more vs others. Otherwise, why would zoom get so popular with the word of mouth of 'it just works'?

What you're saying is basically a form of 'works on my machine'.

Somehow Zoom has become the Facebook of videoconferencing services.

Zoom, Facebook, Microsoft, and Google could all learn a thing or two from Apple with regard to privacy policy.

They record and transcribe all calls why? Where do they store it? Why do they store it?
