Zoom Breaches Data Privacy; Agrees For Settlement Fee Of $85 Mn

Following a lawsuit that was slapped on Zoom claiming it stealthily transferred the users' personal data to Facebook, Google, and Linkedin, the platform has agreed to pay a settlement fee of $85 million in the USA on August 1. The money will be used to set up ''a non-reversionary cash fund to pay valid claims, notice, any attorneys' fees.'' The settlement is yet to be approved by the court.
