Zoom has a healthcare specific license for healthcare. Don't think they could add that in and stay HIPAA compliant, but I can't any exceptions in the ToS so maybe US healthcare is actually trash and this is "fine"

It's definitely not fine, but they may be stupid enough to try and train a model on healthcare zoom meetings. I think I'm gonna let my healthcare company security team know. We do a lot of cross collaborative meetings with the university and I'm not sure their license is the healthcare one. Typically that's all just resolved through a business agreement, but if it's a part of the ToS now they may be violating HIPAA without knowing it even while having business agreements not to. Might be worth filling a complaint to give the hhs a heads up that they're potentially noncompliant.
