Zoom Deleted Events Discussing Zoom “Censorship”
I stopped using zoom after they shut down accounts because people were discussing the Tiananmen Square Massacre.<p>That they would continue to support the CCP’s interests under a banner of “operating within the laws of the country” is not a surprise.<p>> “Zoom is committed to supporting the open exchange of ideas and conversations”<p>This is total nonsense and is demonstrated by their actions - Zoom is an unethical company rationalizing bad behavior and people should avoid using them.<p>I know their software is the best (webex is awful), but they can’t be trusted to even care about doing the right thing.<p>Longer form thoughts on this: <a href="https://zalberico.com/essay/2020/06/13/zoom-in-china.html" rel="nofollow">https://zalberico.com/essay/2020/06/13/zoom-in-china.html</a><p>I’m not sure why organizations across the globe trust a company with the majority of its devs operating out of China and vulnerable to CCP influence. There’s a reason the client is banned at Google, and elsewhere in USG.<p>It’s not comparable to companies operating in western democratic countries.
