Zoom Will Drop 40-Minute Time Limit for Thanksgiving

Zoom recently announced on Twitter that it would lift the 40-minute time limit for all meetings on Thanksgiving so "your family gatherings don't get cut short," reports WWMT Newschannel 3 . Its usual procedure is to end meetings after 40 minutes for free if the user is not a customer. Many Michiganders have decided to host a virtual Thanksgiving dinner this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Michigan's Department of Health and Human Services issued an order limiting the size of indoor gatherings through the holiday, which took effect on Nov. 18, with a duration of three weeks. Families are allowed to gather with one other household in a residence, while also following COVID-19 precautions.
