Zoom needs to accelerate its move out of China. It gets hardly any business from there and will be much better off completely cutting ties with the communist government.

There should be a congressional hearing on $Zoom @zoom_us, there are still many unanswered questions. The company must be held accountable. So far it hasn’t shown any remorse, not even an apology to the organizers and participants of the meetings. https://t.co/8XZ14OPF2b
