CMC Dad Lobbies for Zoom

David Beavers and Daniel Lippman report at Politico:
Mehlman Castagnetti Rosen & Thomas started lobbying for Zoom on April 1 on issues related “to video conferencing and other communication and collaboration services,” according to a disclosure filed on Thursday. After rocketing upward in popularity during the pandemic, Zoom is facing calls from lawmakers for an investigation into its privacy and security policies.
— “Consistent with our commitment to transparency, Zoom is proactively engaging with our users to ensure they understand Zoom's relevant policies, as well as the best ways to customize their Zoom security and privacy settings for their own use cases,” the company said in a statement. “At the same time, we look forward to engaging with lawmakers across a broad range of issues, and we are pleased to have support from Bruce Mehlman [CMC P `21] and his bipartisan team on these efforts.”
