#Zoom just* changed their terms and conditions to include using anyone's video and audio for training #AI with no option for opting out. You too can help train #deepfake s!

Living with a disabled spouse, I used Zoom a lot to get through the ongoing global pandemic.

What alternatives are out there for remote teaching/meetings?

[* Evidently changed by the March 31, 2023 terms of service, but I didn't notice until yesterday.]

@MedievalMideast Jitsi!

It's open source and doesn't require accounts! Make up a meeting name, boom, you are DONE.

@MedievalMideast (it is also selfhostable if you want more control and have the knowledge/spoons for setting it up, but you don't have to! But like selfhosting would be /great/ for organizational use rather than private meetings.)
