New And a few other things
https://www.theregister.co.uk/2020/04/01/zoom_spotlight/

the company has been forced to admit that although it explicitly gives users the option to hold an “end-to-end encrypted” conversation and touts end-to-end encryption as a key feature of its service, in fact it offers no such thing.
because
Zoom granted itself the right to mine your personal data and conference calls to target you with ads, and seemed to have a "creepily chummy" relationship with tracking-based advertisers.
Personal information gathered by the company included, but was not limited to, names, addresses and any other identifying data, job titles and employers, Facebook profiles, and device specifications. It also included "the content contained in cloud recordings, and instant messages, files, whiteboards ... shared while using the service."
and
Zoom's iOS app sent analytics data to Facebook even if you didn't use Facebook to sign into Zoom
Oh, can't let Windows users feel left out:
you can snaffle people's Windows local login usernames and hashed passwords via Zoom by getting them to click on a URL in a chat message that connects to a malicious SMB file server.


Lawsuits are flying and do appear to have some effect. The iOS/Facebook diversion was stopped and they now pinky promise not to sell the harvested information.

Still best to keep way more than 6' separation...
New But they have background replace!

New Big deal. :-)
Apps have appeared that can do that and appear as another "camera" for any other video conferencing app. Some of my colleagues have been using it with BlueJeans.

This looks like the output of a Markov bot that's been fed bus timetables from a city where the buses crash constantly.
