Are you Zoomed out? Just can’t take one more boring Zoom meeting? There’s hope for you — Zoom Escaper is a program that makes excuses for you to leave a Zoom meeting. Here’s a description:
Zoom Escaper has eight different effects. “Echo” and “bad connection” make it sound like you’re experiencing Zoom technical issues we are all familiar with by now. The other six options on Zoom Escaper allow you to leave “by self-sabotaging your audio so your presence becomes unbearable to other people,” said creator Sam Lavigne. You can insert an upset baby or barking dog into the audio and crank the volume. There’s construction noise, wind, and the sounds of urination. The most disturbing is the weeping man, which makes it sound as if someone else in the room is working through something and it’s all being broadcast online. They aren’t the most pleasant ways to leave a meeting, but these are desperate times.
Please note that I am NOT recommending this program. I haven’t used it and cannot vouch for its safety or security.
