I think this is not news for you but I wonder what you think of all this security issues with Zoom?

I just read this article and it appears so damn easy.

Yes… but the article is now removed… [suspense].
@johncoate raised the issue as well here.

Meanwhile we do tests with Jitsi, and are using our own http://now.edgeryders.eu, but both early days.

It seems to me that many programs that can be used for video conferencing or online communication will lack security and don’t meet all cybersecurity requirements. For example, I recently learned that every participant in a video call can record a webcam. That is, my conversation with someone can be easily recorded and I will not receive a notification about it. It’s now really easy to do this with free software like Movavi Screen Recorder, for example. I understand that this tool can also be used for more useful purposes than spying, but this information haunts me, to be honest.
