No. Zoom can't be trusted. When I have to use it I assume that they are spying on me.

Thanks for the reply! ...but that's not what I was actually asking. It seems obvious that I can't trust an app, that does anything opaque, to keep my secrets. I'm not using it to keep my secrets.

What I am asking, is: is there any funny business going on with the app installation on macOS? Can I be sure not to expose my system to risk, by just _installing_ this application?
