Zoom Admits it Doesn't Have 300 Million Users, Corrects Misleading Claims
Zoom has admitted it doesn't have 300 million daily active users. From a report: The admission came after The Verge noticed the company had quietly edited a blog post making the claim earlier this month. Zoom originally stated it had "more than 300 million daily users" and that "more than 300 million people around the world are using Zoom during this challenging time." Zoom later deleted these references from the original blog post, and now claims "300 million daily Zoom meeting participants." The difference between a daily active user (DAU) and "meeting participant" is significant. Daily meeting participants can be counted multiple times: if you have five Zoom meetings in a day then you're counted five times. A DAU is counted once per day, and is commonly used by companies to measure service usage. Only counting meeting participants is an easy, somewhat misleading, way to make your platform usage seem larger than it is.Read more of this story at Slashdot.
