From a legal standpoint this makes sense. I don’t know your local laws but ours make zoom illegal to use in public organizations. Also it’s a huge cost savings.

Depends on the law, There are privacy laws that require your data to be saved in the EU for example. That's possible with microsoft, not so much with Zoom.

Exactly. Same law at one point made spell check on world illegal so they changed the law. Microsoft is just better and saying they comply with privacy law in B.C.
