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.
