Zoom is introducing optional end-to-end encryption which would avoid
this, after protest for free accounts as well as paid accounts, though
free accounts would also need to verify themselves by providing a
contactable phone number.

The reason they say it can't be automatic is that it wont be available
for dial-in phones, SIP/H.323 devices, web browsers, Zoom webinars,
and Zoom chat.

This seems more of a potential interception threat to some commercial
uses (since some conference room facilities currently use dial-in for
sound) if you can't then access end-to-end encryption.

You also have to decide to enable it on a per session basis.

Has anyone checked what their current TOC/EULA says about use of the
images/sounds they can intercept on their servers?
