The U.S. video-conferencing company Zoom closed the account of a group of prominent U.S.-based Chinese activists after they held a Zoom event commemorating the 31st anniversary of the June 4 Tiananmen Square Massacre, Axios has learned.
Zoom has faced growing scrutiny over security concerns and its ties to China.
A Zoom spokesperson confirmed to Axios that the account had been closed “to comply with local law” and said it had now been re-activated.
