The new logo

[Annamal]

The new logo that you have in Web is exactly as the modern-day swastika used to commit a genocide in Ukraine as we speak.
Not sure why you'd opt for something as hideous as that

[Bumblebee]

It is OFFENSIVE to me to have such a logo on my comp! I prefer to see it only in war photos/videos and preferably on non-functional equipment. Change it asap!

I already noticed that some organizations are switching to Microsoft Teams and was wondering why... Then I saw the new logo...

[Nikita_DoReMi]

Oh it's completely atrocious. Unfortunately USA has been intertwined with a lot of Chinese-communism-origin businesses. Read about the CEO of Zoom. I see this a China's indirect support of the war. 

[Nikita_DoReMi]

Zoom is a Chinese-origin run company. The last thing Chinese companies care is what is offensive to us "foreigners".

[lindros99]

Zoom logo is offensive Russia Zatzi symbol.

And who exactly is "American Cloud Video Software Technology" ? One of three shell organizations (owned by China PLA/PRC) to be behind Zoom. Eric Yuan should answer.

[mrAlexZT]

Does the Zoom team support russian aggression against Ukraine?
Why are you using the militarist symbol of russian propaganda?
The Z symbol a swastika in reference to the killing of civil people.
Change it out immediately!

[Yevhen]

New Zoom logo exactly as the modern-day swastika used by russia troops in the war agains Ukraine.

Please change your logo.

[DmytryK]

Z is the symbol of modern russian fascism. It's a misanthropic ideology that wants to destroy other nations and it's sowing chaos around the world. Check out the wiki and watch what is going on in Ukraine.

Change the logo!

[CarlUlrichG]

Hi, I am also irritated that after client update today in my windows tasklist in the Russion War Z is displayed. 

@Anonymous team: please change this. I find this emotionally confusing and negative. Well, it gives me incenvtive to close / not use zoom as often as possible

[penguinejurassi]

This is disgusting. Your logo was just fine but now I will do everything not to use this app. 

[AlexN0]

Zoom, please change the logo. It's not that hard.

[volodymyr808]

Shame on you (Z)oom. Such a great solution of an ongoing issue for more than half a year - hiding your head in the ground as an ostrich. Great stuff. If that's the way you are used to work and do your business, I think soon ruZia will be the only origin of your application use. I actually sincere wish you that after what you've done and how you treat this situation.

[Ellmenson]

I am totally shocked that they chose this logo! It is wrong!

[team_tbs]

@Anonymous - this Russian symbol favicon needs to go.  It's extremely bad.

[0velychk0]

ZOOM, Please change your Z-logo it is unacceptable to use it for EU region.
It is hurt to use Zoom in school and Universities for Ukrainian people because of this logo.

[team_tbs]

I'm about ready to cancel Zoom, I am so sickened by seeing the Russian War symbol on my task bar when I'm just trying to have a normal business meeting. 

Maybe some Twitter noise would help them to listen? 

[tudor86]

I think it's probably time to talk to your company about switching and put some pressure. It's been almost 9 months since this disgusting change and considering the lack of action I can only conclude this is intentional. If it wasn't, the change would have been easy. No sane management would publicly use simbols associated with war propaganda (this is a nice way of saying it, because in reality we are talking about war crimes here), unless they are in it and have Russian interests. At this point I'd be really ashamed to work at zoom

[Ellmenson]

I think it's time to start canceling Zoom. They had time to apologize for changing the logo. They didn't do this = they support Russian fascism

[penguinejurassi]

I agree. The worst thing is that they don't even try to address the issue i.e. WDGAF.

[Ellmenson]

Any options for suitable hashtags?

[penguinejurassi]

#BoycottZoom

#NaziZoom

[PavelAsafov]

Are we gonna cancel the movie Zorro, too? Shall we cancel the letter Z itself?

[JAPedrazaP]

That's a poor analogy. Try this, if Brad Pitt's World War Z had come out in the las 9 months with a helvetica white Z like zoom's one, yes, they would have probably received heat and most probably would haven't even tried out of respect. But like Zorro's one is a red Serif one. Respect its what zoom is lacking and so a lot of responses like "should we cancel zorro?". It is not about cancelling, it's about avoid offending. If the Hindus and Buddhists have been polite enough to minimize the use of their Surya symbol for prosperity and good luck to westerns, I think this thread is about calling for the same kind of courtesy and inclusion of individuals who may feel bad, not criticize them.

[Ellmenson]

I have no desire to answer the russian

[Nilan]

Finally the logo is slowly changing back from Z to zoom or zm on my system. But it would be great to get rid of the war symbol Z allover when using the program. Thanks Zoom for finally removing the Z but please speed up the process! Then I can switch back to Zoom from the alternative video conference systems.

[0velychk0]

Thanks ZOOM company for changing his short logo  . These days russian army uses "z" as a symbol of war invasion. I believe Ukrainian kids 🇺🇦 really appreciate new logo update because they uses ZOOM widely for their remote school lessons while russian missiles and drones tries to destroy their life's ❤️

[SASAKI]

今日、アップデートを行ったところ、ロシアのZからzmに変更されていました！　ちょっと対応が遅いですが、ロゴが変えられた事は、良かったと思います！

[bennnn]

良かった。大学の図書館で利用して怖くなくなりました。この問題を書いた日、zoomを起動した途端にデモの人が後ろにいました。

[penguinejurassi]

Finally, I'm no longer ashamed to use it! Still, the experience left a bad taste in my mouth. 

[bennnn]

On the day I reported this problem, a group of anti-war protesters had just entered the building behind me, just after I had started zoom and there was the big white z. I really didn't want to be a target, just wanted to listen to a lecture 😞

[FantasyBANG]

They probably didn't think of it that way my friend. Not gonna lie, I 100% Support and understand where your coming from, but just be a bit more patient with zoom, K ? I know that they changed the logo now, but just for future reference. 🙂

[ashulga]

finally, glad to see they changed their mind. recent update brought old logo back. can't but say it really could happen much sooner.
