Great, but they already lost user trust. Many will never install or use Zoom again.

  Eh, people have short memories. There was a major scandal back in the day where (forgive me if my memory is not super accurate, it's been a while) they were basically starting a long-running daemon process as root and binding it to a port where it would listen for instructions, so even when you closed Zoom it was still actually running. There were other big security (encryption IIRC?) issues that they had. Huge privacy and security scandals, so bad that they ended up acquihiring Keybase (still sad at that loss personally). But still it didn't matter, nobody remembers or cares (except me, I refuse to install their native app. The day they fully block browser access will be a bad day).
