Teams virtual background
I want to set a virtual background permanently in Teams so that I don't have to change it every time I start or join a new call?
PLEASE add this feature.
I do not want my Covid-19 work from home office, on display for any length of time, and when I forget to blur until someone notices, it is not a pretty outcome.
I tend to keep my camera OFF simply because this is a "need to do every time" I turn on my camera.

It's in there more than once, but this one seems to have more votes:

This one is worded better, because it's really about having a default virtual background:

I upvoted both.
