Very helpful extension to hide visually distracting attendees from view. This is a must have for those with visual-sensory sensitivities, especially when another attendee has constant distracting movement, such as a treadmill desk, an exercise ball chair, or eating meals on camera.

It does not save traffic and does not save cpu, all it does is to add display: none to video element Unfortunately useless
