Including enterprise calls? Lots of companies use this for client calls etc....
Ya, I'm gonna have to see if we need to blacklist this for our org now. That's not gonna be popular.
My huge corporation banned us from ever using it ever. They were iffy on it before, so previously we were only allowed to use it if we don't handle any sensitive data, but now we aren't allowed even have it be installed, they don't trust any of it

Got a link for that? First time I've heard that.
Apparently this has happened more then once. I can find more articles once I'm on my desktop, but here's one of the more recent examples.
