MODERATORS
Not sure if they have only just added a clarification, but it now says
Which seems to imply that by agreeing to their TOS, you are giving consent for them to use this.
THIS! When I read Zoom's response to the tweet that was the focus of this original post, my initial thought was "...but you are having them agree to terms without an opt-out"
Doesn't it also call out that any recordings are fair game
Zoom’s about to try and claim their click through EULA trumps client-attorney privilege. Let’s see how that goes for them.
As I understand it's extortionate consent though. Either you "consent" to your private data being used in this way, or you can't use Zoom.
Good thing there's self hosted and E2EE alternatives.
I've heardabout Jitsi, what else is out there? Is there a list for these?
