This is super intrusive and creepy frankly. 

 

I see you did not really address the point on this related post:

Hello @ianholmes!


Welcome to the Zoom Community! We're glad to have you here.

When you add a Zoom event to your Google Calendar, Zoom may request access to your Google Workspace account to create or manage calendar events on your behalf. This integration is designed to streamline scheduling and ensure your Zoom meetings appear directly in your calendar.

However, granting access is optional. If you prefer not to connect your Google account, you can manually copy the Zoom meeting details and paste them into your Google Calendar event without using the integration. This way, Zoom will not have access to your Google Workspace.

If you have concerns about privacy or permissions, you can always review and manage app access in your Google account settings.
