Here& #39;s my unpopular take on orgs banning Zoom (a stream of consciousness thread):

1) Now is a horrible time to be taking away people& #39;s best lifeline to their colleagues. We are going through unprecedented disruption. Don& #39;t disrupt people& #39;s lives even more. It& #39;s damaging.
2) you& #39;re creating more organizational debt, which will have long-term consequences you don& #39;t see. These policies will last. They will stop making any sense. And you won& #39;t be able to undo them. Your org will carry that debt for way longer than it should. And you& #39;ll pay interest.
3) Zoom is working incredibly hard to address the issues that have been identified. Give them some credit. The articles you& #39;re reading might be true and most of them are also sensational to sell clicks. Don& #39;t react from that information.
4) Most use cases for zoom are completely fine right now. Read more closely. What you& #39;re sharing on Facebook and Twitter and Google is in the same realm. If you& #39;re on there, you& #39;re in it already.
5) If you disagree with me, here& #39;s a picture of my dog to make up for your lost seconds.
Oh one final post script: I see you moving to MS Teams and WebEx. Microsoft and Cisco say thanks. You& #39;re solidifying the big companies& #39; hold on the market. Congratulations.
