I was in a meeting where the spotlit participant kept getting their spotlight removed without me, the only host touching anything. I wasn't in a position to ask the participant if they were removing the spotlight themselves so I'm trying to figure out if it was a bug with Zoom or if there's a possibility of the participant doing it themself. So, can a participant without host/co-host privileges remove their spotlight?

Hi @awells
I didn't think so, but actually, yes - they can.
I just tested it.
A participant can un-spotlight themselves, even if they are not Host/Co-Host.
