And so zoom crumbled from the social pressure, while every other service and website is thinking "oof, they didn't realize that everybody does this to do advertising"

It's also possible they didn't listen to their app over the wire and see it doing this. What lesson could we teach about "why you should mitmproxy your app while it's in development?", so that people can start uncovering this in other apps — including their own?

The implication of saying they “crumbled” to the “social pressure” is that it’s bad to take clear feedback from your user base. It doesn’t make any sense.

It's not downvoted, now.

Yep, no doubt it was when you commented, but an unfairly downvoted state on a comment usually corrects fairly quickly, which is one of the reasons why the guidelines ask us not to complain about it.

Who in their right mind would downvote a "but everybody does this?! it's so mean to focus on this instance" comment?
