Some students always find a way to break the rules—and Zoom classes were not going to be an exception.
As the world adapts to the coronavirus pandemic, students have shifted to the popular video-calling app.
These kids have found a clever hack to get away from their online classes, without getting into any trouble.
In this hack, you need to turn off your video, and rename yourself to 'reconnecting', this appears as if you're having internet issues.
The hack went viral on TikTok.

Another interesting hack involves using a virtual background with a picture of you, to pretend like you're still attending the class.

Few people came forward and talked about the serious consequences of this unethical act.
Reactions:
Sooo how many hacks, data breaches and lawsuits against #Zoom are needed before y’all stop using? 🤔 🤷🏽♀️

I don’t understand why Zoom “hacks” are made out to be some huge privacy crisis. Use a private meeting code and a password. This isn’t rocket science.

If you left a big bag of cash in your car with the convertible top down and the doors open, the thief didn’t “hack” you.
I still find it hilarious that people actually use zoom hacks to look for mechanics going on.
