Zoom's Updated Terms of Service Permit Training AI on User Content Without Opt-Out
Zoom Video Communications, Inc. recently updated its Terms of Service to encompass what some critics are calling a significant invasion of user privacy.
Zoom's updated policy states that all rights to Service Generated Data are retained solely by Zoom. This extends to Zoom's rights to modify, distribute, process, share, maintain, and store such data "for any purpose, to the extent and in the manner permitted under applicable law.", including AI and Machine Learning.

The term "enshittification" comes to mind.
Cory Doctorow is a smart man and I'm glad he's around to educate us.
The term “enshittification” is as common on Lemmy as “play stupid games…” is on Reddit.
It’s a much less stupid word/phrase, though, so that’s fine with me.
thanks for sharing, looks like some good alternatives here.
What's with companies destroying themselves while attempting to maximize profits.
They clearly don't believe that change will in any way destroy them, just as Reddit's API move did not destroy Reddit. I am sorry for being cynical, but the reality is people don't care.
