Am I misunderstanding the product, or are the streams not being merged on the server into a single feed?

>To be clear, in a meeting where all of the participants are using Zoom clients, and the meeting is not being recorded, we encrypt all video, audio, screen sharing, and chat content at the sending client, and do not decrypt it at any point before it reaches the receiving clients.

They are merged. There is no end to end encryption unless you are talking about the connection between you and zoom.

That is not at all how they describe the product, in their correction post clarifying their use of encryption.

The part after the caret is a quote from them.
