And then in August, "We are now shifting to a partner-only model with Zoom technology embedded in partner offerings, which will provide better local support to users in Mainland China." https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/zoom-ends-sales-to-customers-in-china/ar-BB17wfGb
Interesting bit: The U.S. company was founded by Eric Yuan, a Chinese immigrant who is now a U.S. citizen, but its product development team is "largely" based in China, according to a regulatory filing.
Eric Yuan's come-up looks like a textbook Clown Op. His wikipedia is short, sweet and reeks of a bullshit story. Inspired by Bill Gates. Zoom went public in 2019. Too convenient. And now China is probably busy mining the entire world's data from zoom meetings, school, medical, you name it.
The whole world is also using Microsoft Teams that they just had ready to go for the scamdemic. My company has switched to Teams and I’ve gotta say it’s complete trash compared to Skype. Teams also gives the company full access to all chat records, so spying is 110% easier for the company. In the case of my company they have forced us to not talk to each other anymore by taking away our group chats where we could discuss anything, not just stuff related to our jobs.
Teams is crap. It takes up too much RAM, and opening a document is a nightmare.
We had full logs on Skype 4 Business too. If you work for a reasonable company, you shouldn't expect to be spied on. Unless you give a reason.
How bout google meets, same charade
Zoom is owned by China
Every time I tell my company zoom is a CCP owned company and they spy on any meeting they want without your knowledge and we should use a more secure way of talking about confidential company information they blow me off and say "well everyone uses it and they seem to be ok with it." this is the mentality of people who are handling your confidential information every day.
Never used zoom. Never will. I said at the beginning of this whole thing, why would I want to use a Chinese knockoff of Skype?
I do and it’s never required zoom.
Some federal agencies use Zoom too. I do not believe it is allowed in DOD entities.
It is for defense companies, sadly.
That's right. If you require a Zoom meeting, you use your own device. Teams is for our Enterprise systems. Eye roll
And of course the fucking communist department of education would push for zoom to be used in all the school districts
Zoom does absolutely nothing that hasn't been around for a decade on Skype and other platforms. Makes zero sense with their total takeover of the market. Should be suspicious to anyone but I'm apparently a conspiracy theorist.
At the time I thought it was odd the whole world settled on one otherwise unknown piece of software to do everything.
Ive been saying this to everyone I know when the news broke, but no one listens.
Cataloging people, kids
AI is learning from us
CCP & DS have implanted operators EVERYWHERE to ensure there are no other options available for us. To get anything accomplished, you must comply. It is like cattle being led down a chute to the slaughterhouse; they have no choice and no awareness until it is too late.
Yes! Zoom is now painted on the Ice during hockey games. I don't trust things that want to use a camera. China just wants to come in our home. What a perfect way to come inside through our children on Zoom classrooms. I am telling my sons school no more virtual bc we no longer use Google. How is the school going to force me to use a program we do NOT support? This also reminds me of when Pokemn Go was so popular, just another spy tech getting access to peoples homes.
Yes, I heard someone on the radio today saying that we should shut down Zoom entirely. That would bring everyone back to school and work. We should see how this could be accomplished. I had to do a couple of classes on Zoom and it was just horrible, and I refused to do any more. I felt so disconnected from the students. So bad, and then the next week (no major snowstorm) I was back and it was wonderful. People with people. No masks, of course. END ZOOM NOW!!
all those legislators buying stock in it before the ' outbreak ' is shady af
Get friends together, hold super secret 'China Suck' Zoom meetings and do nothing but trash China. See what happens?
I feel like their taking the recordings of children for their robots
China is going to eventually buy out every bankrupt business in the US. They can just spy on internal meetings to see exactly when to strike or any other info that might be useful
