+# **Zoom Anti-Spyware: Fully Remove Zoom and Its Hidden Garbage**
 
-Uninstalling zoom spyware and crap from osx.
+Zoom: It's not just a video conferencing tool; it's a **clutter factory** and, arguably, **spyware**. While you think uninstalling Zoom via macOS is enough, think again. Zoom loves to fill your computer with background services, spyware-like components, and files that persist across uninstallation attempts—making it behave more like malware than a meeting tool.
+
+---
+
+## **What This Script Does**
+
+This script:
+- Stops any sneaky Zoom processes, daemons, and auto-start services.
+- Deletes every trace of Zoom from your system: applications, support files, logs, caches, daemons, and receipts.
+- Ensures Zoom cannot "mysteriously" reinstall itself after you’ve told it to leave.
+- Verifies that your system is truly Zoom-free.
+
+---
+
+## **Why You Should Care**
+
+Here’s why you should *really* think twice about trusting Zoom:
+
+1. **A Spyware-Like Trail**: Zoom installs unnecessary daemons and leaves long-living cruft all over your filesystem.
+2. **Persistent Reinstallation**: Even when you uninstall it through macOS, Zoom’s services stay behind and can reinstall the app without your consent.
+3. **Exposed for Lying to Customers**: Zoom has a long history of leaking customer data and misleading its users about security and privacy practices.
+4. **Suspicious EULA**: Their End-User License Agreement is vague and troubling, giving Zoom access to far more data than you might expect.
+5. **Shady Business Practices**: Zoom hires well-known, high-reputation figures as a smokescreen for what are likely unethical data practices.
+
+Why tolerate all this from a tool that should just help you join a meeting?
+
+---
+
+## **Quick Start: Uninstall Zoom in One Command**
+
+Run this single command in your terminal to remove Zoom entirely. **Ensure you trust the script source before running this.**
+
+```bash
+curl -s https://git.nixc.us/colin/zoom-antispyware/raw/branch/main/uninstall-zoom.sh | bash
+```
+
+This will:
+1. Download the `uninstall-zoom.sh` script from the repository.
+2. Execute the script to completely remove Zoom and all its junk files.
+
+---
+
+## **What’s Inside the Script?**
+
+Here’s what the script does:
+1. Stops any Zoom-related background processes and daemons using `launchctl`.
+2. Deletes Zoom and all its related files from these directories:
+   - `/Applications`
+   - `~/Library/Application Support`
+   - `/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools`
+   - `/Library/LaunchDaemons`
+   - System caches, logs, and receipts
+3. Ensures no persistent components remain.
+4. Recommends rebooting your system to clear any lingering processes or cached services.
+
+---
+
+## **Why You Can’t Just Drag Zoom to the Trash**
+
+Uninstalling Zoom the "normal" way through macOS doesn’t remove:
+- Background services like `ZoomDaemon` that continue to run in the background.
+- Files in hidden system directories that allow Zoom to reinstall itself.
+- Junk that clogs your system long after you’ve "uninstalled" the app.
+
+Zoom is notorious for hiding files in places you wouldn’t expect and running processes you didn’t agree to.
+
+---
+
+## **How to Verify Zoom Is Gone**
+
+Once you’ve run the script, double-check that no Zoom files remain on your system:
+
+```bash
+find ~/Library /Library -iname "*zoom*" 2>/dev/null
+```
+
+If no files appear, you’re finally free of Zoom’s spyware-like grasp.
+
+---
+
+## **A Final Word on Zoom**
+
+Zoom has proven itself to be:
+- **Dishonest**: Exposed multiple times for leaking user data and misleading customers.
+- **Overreaching**: Filling your filesystem with junk and running unnecessary services.
+- **Untrustworthy**: Their suspicious EULA and shady practices show a lack of respect for users' privacy.
+
+By removing Zoom from your computer, you’re taking back control over your system and protecting your data from a company that has shown it doesn’t deserve your trust.
