Technical explanation

Suggestion to add to the article: It wasn't a Zoom filter, but likely a hard-to-remove filter by a virtual camera software bundled with the webcam driver:

Link to primary source

The original link can be found at the very bottom of the article. I honestly didn't notice it and was about to consider adding it into the article, until after finding it (google will return videos from AP, BBC, ABC7 etc before the original video) and then searching the video ID in the article noticed it was already there, at the very bottom below all the references. I don't know if "References" before "External links" is a wikipedia rule and if there can be exceptions, but I think in this case it'd make sense to move it higher, or to add the link in other places where it might make more sense, like below the screenshot of the video.
