By the way, I hate how Zoom turns on your microphone and video camera, by default.

It’s dangerous for reasons such as this.

Very true. I won’t use it because of that.

There are preferences to disable that. Or should I say "orientation"?

You can change the default in your Zoom settings to turn off your video and mute your microphone whenever you join a meeting. OTOH, unless I know for a certainty otherwise, I always assume that the camera and mic are on.

When I had to start participating in Zoom conferences I bought a camera/microphone that plugs into a USB port in the front of my PC. Whenever I am not using it I unplug it.
