Google Meet now shares detailed bandwidth information with your employer

A new feature in the latest update for Google Meet lets administrators see employee bandwidth during a call.

The Meet Quality tool will show a user's estimated available bandwidth and how much bandwidth they need for each moment of the call. The new tool shows each person&s bandwidth in a second-by-second line graph, rather than the average number over the length of the call. By exposing this detailed information, admins can easily fix or improve call quality for their users.

There is a lengthy list of everything you can do with the Meet logs. It includes network statistics like packet loss, congestion, and ping times, as well as whether you were on a wired, wireless, or cellular connection, microphone and speaker levels, and any moderation actions. The log of every meeting, including the names and descriptions of all the participants, is provided by the Meet Audit log.

Everything you do on a workspace account is recorded and saved. That is a bit strange. Your school or employer pays for all this, so it gets all the data.
