As important as drawing the casus belli is laying out alternatives. What are the alternatives to Zoom, supporting Linux, OSX, mobile and Windows, with decent terms of use?

And I'm curious what Team's current terms are too.

Does this mean Zoom expects their users to take on the legal burden if someone on a call uses a copyrighted image on a PowerPoint slide?

Jitsi Meet has pretty wide OS support, no experience of it in enterprise though, only personal use.

The article suggests jitsi and I have had success using it in all the platforms you mentioned.

The page suggests using Jitsi instead (https://meet.jit.si/), which is apparently open source and can be self-hosted. I've never used it, just pointing at what the page suggests.

I came directly to the comments to recommend Jitsi instead. Glad the author made the same early in the article.
