Note: "Zoom" is a videoconfrerencing app, not a built-in Mac OS accessibility feature for "zoom".

The article does not clearly state this, ceding a plain English word to a corporation, enabling a takeover of human language.

P.S.: This part

> Apr 26, 2019 — Video call with Mozilla and Zoom Security Teams

is funny, and would be way funnier if it was an non-consensual video call.

Finally, note that Zoom effectively does not pay for bug bounties, so researchers should think twice about donating their expertise to a selfish for-profit corporation, and users should think twice about using a videochat product that allows its entire security team to take blackout vacations, and also doesn't pay its outsourced sercurity researchers.
