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.
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.
