Zoom trying to do damage control by obfuscating what they say VS what they mean is a good reminder to take PR statements with a grain of salt. By looking at what Zoom has actually done, you'll quickly see all the times they've flat-out lied.
Remember when Zoom claimed to offer end-to-end encryption but didn't? I do.
Remember when they said they've made joining meetings on macOS easier but actually installed an exploit that made Zoom re-install itself if a user uninstalled it? I do.
Remember when Zoom said they were protecting user privacy but then handed user data to Facebook? I do.
It's always good to have a reminder that what a company says is often of significantly less importance than what they've done.
