Initially Zoom said it had suspended Zhou's account to comply with "local laws," but was not specific about which local laws were being enforced. In apublished on Thursday, Zoom confirmed it was the Chinese government which had forced it to shut down multiple human rights users' accounts after they hosted meetings about Tiananmen Square.
The meetings were attended by Chinese users, which meant they fell under Chinese censorship laws forbidding the discussion of Tiananmen Square. Zoom said in its blog post that it shut down the meetings because it does not have the capability to block users individually by country. "We could have anticipated this need. While there would have been significant repercussions, we also could have kept the meetings running," the company said.
It has since reinstated the users' accounts and says it is working on functionality to block users based on their geographical location. "Going forward Zoom will not allow requests from the Chinese government to impact anyone outside of mainland China," it promised.to company CEO Eric Yuan, asking whether Zoom is trying to "curry favor" with China's Communist Party.
Not okay to use Huawei, but it is okay for most of American businesses, households, and schools to use Zoom. SMH.
Fuck Zoom, why are people even considering using it
Standwi78914908 Nowadays, no one believes Chinese affiliates have credibility at all. Unfortunately Zoom is one of the many Chinese affiliates as given what it did.
'Promise' blah blah blah, they did it once and they'll do it again.
CCP🇨🇳's censorship on 🇺🇸American soil, again What's next? Communism?

It is time to consult legal experts to prepare class-action lawsuits against ZOOM for violating the freedom of expression of US account holders.
Zoom is China's telescreen. Orwell Big Brother is watching you.

curlybo2 Why US-based protestors should listen to the ccp? And Zoom is obviously not just a Program to use but also a tool for the ccp to control people all over the world. So crazy!!
jojojojoben Same as Causeway Bay Bookstore's Gui Minhai, CCP 's logic is Zoom's CEO is a PRC citizen for life even though he got his US passport. If this Zoom guy not comply to what CCP says, will be treated the same as CCP did to Gui Minhai.
SAI Good
SAI Hi
but does it *pinky promise*?
China is censoring people from other countries and destroying their countries' freedom of speech🤦🏻♀️ no CCP you ain't gonna act like that spoiled kid whom everyone in the school has to obey you.
Are we going to trust Zoom again? It is revealed that there is no freedom of speech under the CCP manipulation. BoycottChineseApp immediately to avoid censorship.
Do you believe their promise? Such a joke
CCPChina is a liar ,please don’t trust!
China is no longer a trustworthy partner to build a reliable, safe, civilized & peaceful world. CCP break promise, use lies, censorship, torture & virus to spoil the world. All countries should find a new partner now. World is much better w/o CCP.
Zoom is a pro-CCP company that censor contains for China. It collects your personal information & privacy, transmit & store in China server. Leakage of privacy is a deep concern while using it.
Never trust CCPChina and any parties related to it. BoycottChina MagnitskyActNow
