@GuerillaOntologist @samhainnight @yojimbo @molly0xfff Today was the second time a Zoom I’m in had an uninvited bot attendee, and we’ve had to remove them from the meeting manually when discovered.

Exactly what happened to us. The person who unknowingly had a bot attending our meeting was pretty appalled and embarrassed as well. I'd say the FCC or FTC should be doing something about this, but ever since Elon's "autopilot" was allowed on public roads, it's been clear that US regulatory agencies are basically useless, so...
