You can make a video call to a group or to a single person using Google Meet. It contains a number of features, including the ability to customize the backdrop. In Google Meet, you can invite individuals to a video meeting before or after it begins. You can add people to a meeting after it starts when you initiate it using Gmail. During a video meeting, you can also dismiss people.

How Can we Restrict Unwanted Guests to Attend the Meeting?

Before someone can join a meeting in Google Meet, organizers must accept their request to join the meeting. This feature can keep undesirable users from interrupting your calls at random. Each and every participant will require your permission to enter, so you're in command.

Can the participant rejoin after I remove them once?

No, google shows a warning message "if you remove this participant, they will not be able to join again" before you confirm and kick someone out of the meeting. Please confirm once before removing someone from the meeting.

Can anyone crash the meeting, uninvitedly?

Yes, if you'd shared the google meet link in advance, then anyone with the link can use the code to join the meeting. So, make sure you only share the link with the actual attendees to avoid such scenarios.
