Zoom has settled a privacy lawsuit for $85 million
Zoom Video Communications Inc. has settled a privacy lawsuit for $85 million over the violation of user privacy rights and hacking, Reuters reported.
The case alleges that the teleconferencing software program was sharing personal data with various social media platforms, including Facebook and LinkedIn, and was allowing “Zoombombing,” where hackers would disrupt meetings by sharing pornographic images and racial slurs.
A preliminary settlement, which still requires approval from a judge, was filed on Saturday.
