A similar silence occurred when Marriott fired the guy over the tweet about Tibet. In fact, they were forced to apologize [0]. I kinda hope Zoom is forced to apologize by China as well to at least clarify the type of company they are. 0 - https://twitter.com/MarriottBonvoy/status/951344031405084673

> Zoom is forced to apologize by China

Why would China want them to apologize? (Or there's a typo?)

Didn't zoom do what C wanted already

Cf. the Marriott apology in GP's link - it would be further to the action already taken, rather than retracting or apologising for it.
