    IT enforced background blur for GDPR reasons. You simply couldn’t turn it off, so everybody was blurred during the daily standup.

        Most people have workstation laptops with Nvidia Quadro’s so that’s not really an issue.

      We don’t even use Cameras anymore for anything except explicitly scheduled one-on-one meetings like Quarterly Review.
