As the name implies, this feature stops all activity in its tracks during your Zoom session. With the click of a button, all microphones are muted, cameras turned off, screen sharing stops, \u200bbreakout rooms end, chat is disabled, and the meeting is locked. At that point, only you (the host) can decide what happens next.
