The script below is not a solution. In order for the script to become a
solution, specific pixel positions need to be accounted for. This script
would have to be adjusted either by you using things like screenshots and a
software like MS paint to get the right pixel positions as well as edit the
script or you provide the screenshots, and I do the rest.

I wasn't able to set my profile picture due to a recent Zoom issue, but if
users already set their profile picture then it wouldn't be necessary to
have the script set that though you know what you want. You can
automatically turn off video of participants and block video only after it
was turned on first from my experience. Video can't be blocked like audio
can. Xdotool needs to be installed which can be done with the command sudo
apt install xdotool. The link below gives more info about xdotool commands.
