You call it a fatal security flaw, they call it a feature.

Why Zoom, why not Skype?
I'm just asking.

Someone wanted to do a conference using Zoom. I declined. I’ll wait for an American company you create a program.

As some of us used to say about 1990s Microsoft Windows -- "You can bet security is super tight when a company's operating motto appears to be, 'Our software only crashes 3 times a day when you use it.' Imagine an airline with that kind of track record." Bill Gates was in charge then. Zeus be praised that he has such great opinions about mandatory counter-virus strategies....

Zoom did not expected such spike in user count, there are still a lot of security flaws with the product while it gained so much traction. They are working on fixing them.

All this makes me think of trump working so hard to lead our beautiful country. It must be hard for because there are so many who are so close to being caught for their wrongdoing( who have been handicapping his efforts). Trump is being bombarded with fake hate....as the banking industry tries to push into a different banking system. Go go go trump.
