@mfriess Not only that. I’m not a lawyer, but I read the passages to mean that Zoom (or anyone else, if they like) can use anything you send or receive through Zoom (ie, audio, video, chat messages, files) plus anything they make of it (ie, auto-generated subtitles) in practically any way they like, including machine learning. (Except for the explicit mentioning of AI, this has probably been there for a while, and it’s good that we pay attention.)
