@jmsdnns Not remotely a fan of Zoom, but FWIW, that section of the TOS is specifically about ancillary data that Zoom generates based on usage and not user generated data:

“…telemetry data, product usage data, diagnostic data, and similar content…”

Unless I’m misreading it, this part of the TOS seems to be more for training “hey, it looks like you call Suzan around this time every week” and not “we’re going to steal your conversations and use them for data generation” data.

@bkbkbk @jmsdnns that is how I interpret this as well. Still might be the thin end of the wedge but they don't appear to be stealing camera and audio data (yet) for GenAI. 🤔

Totally. I mean Reddit is already looking to monetize all the conversations it is storing as AI training material, I think every company that claims to own our conversations is going to reassert their right to profit off all of our data.
