There's a setting you can turn on called "Automatically add Google Meet video conferences to events I create"[1].
I tested on a new account and the default was on, which you might argue is bad, but when I tried to create my first calendar event there was a popup that told me that it was on and gave me the option to turn it off.
Plus when you create a event the option to include a Google Meet is right there and it's one click to remove.

- ocdtrekkie 6y agoQuestion is, what's it doing when you use client software that doesn't support the spammy popups? It appears that for a third party client user, it auto-injected URLs the sender didn't expect or even see. So someone creating a Zoom invite had no idea their coworkers might see a Meet link. Also, Google could/should recognize that a meeting invite with a competitor's room URL in it is somewhere it shouldn't inject its own. Especially since it opens up yet another avenue for an open and shut anticompetitive case against them.
- londons_explore 6y agoBlacklisting some competitor URL's is discriminatory against smaller competitors or people's on-site solutions at private URLs
- SahAssar 6y agoThe parent didn't say to blacklist the competitor but rather to not inject googles own when a competitors URL was already in the invite.
