    The real trouble here is got vague the term “user generated content” is.

    Does that include recordings of meetings? Does that include files or messages over chat during calls? Does it include names of those attending calls?

    With it being so vague, you have to assume the worst possible case, which sucks for anyone who uses Zoom.

      yeah I think it means … ALL OF IT.

      also double sucks because a lot of people have no choice but to use zoom. jobs require it.

        They wont for long if their legal departments see that. We already arent allowed to record meetings with zoom where i work, and are going to teams.

        Its the people who lose in this one

        If you have to use it for work, it is not your issue, but your employer’s.

        Still, I will be surprised if zoom will apply this rule to corporate customers.

            Good point: n this case it is 50/50, I would say. Interview is unlikely, your private discussion. Not sure to what degree interview discussion “belongs” to the interviewing company.

            Moreover, if you think that company uses wrong tools, you can simply reject interview.

                I think zoom do not want to own everything, it simply wants to be able to use this data to improve their services and stay relevant. Ms teams had a lot of ml bases features already.

                But how is this related to the contents of my comment?

      They can’t be that stupid. Many companies that use zoom do it to discuss with clients, in conversations that are expected to be private and confidential. Training an ai might mean leaking some of this content, unless it’s an AI used exclusive internally at zoom. They better not use recording of meetings, unless they are ready to pay lawyers for years

      Unrelated, you’re my favourite game ever and I love you and miss you and I’d pay so much for a pre-re server without a cash shop at maybe 2-5k total players.
