<div>Hi everyone,</div>

<div>Yesterday, while I was participating in a Zoom session
hosted by an activists' group I'm part of, our meeting was
"bombed" (hijacked) by highly disturbing and traumatising
imagery. This experience left all of us on the call quite
shaken, but I told myself that it can be the catalyst for
action so that we can protect ourselves going forward. As
such, I compiled a <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zUV_z0XkuN2rQ5bDYFx9BBWM4rpYpO5Ker5ZWDnPr9M/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">short

I want to share.</div>

<div class="gmail_default">Dear Raoul, All of
the major meeting platforms have serious
issues. I do not believe zoom is more
disastrous than the others. It was not
obscure, tens of millions of people all over
the world have been using it for years and
this is not the first time issues have come
up. I agree that we should watch carefully to
see if they improve on the existing situation.
Please point me to independent reviews of
Jitsi before I even think about it. I hope
security researchers have also looked into
it. Perhaps we should look at
Houseparty?(Joke)</div>

<div class="gmail_default">The fact is that
capitalist competition is driving some of the
public discussion (e.g.competition for
software used in schools - general approach
get them to use it in school and they will
never leave) so it is good if we stick to
objective facts. Perhaps someone could create
a matrix so we compare the issues for the
various platforms : <span style="font-family:Graphik-Regular,sans-serif;text-align:justify;color:rgb(51,51,51)">IBM,
Google Open Meetings, ClickMeeting,
Microsoft Corporation, Oracle Corporation,
Citrix Systems, Inc. and Cisco Systems<span style="font-size:18px;font-family:Graphik-Regular,sans-serif">. </span></span> Kindly
note that when I started using it zoom was
distributed and free (I have never paid for
zoom) and even touted as open source even
though most people would not agree with that
claim. All the best and thanks in advance to
the brilliant person who will create the
matrix.</div>

In addition to promptly fixing several
security issues that were reported,
the company removed an “attendee
attention tracker” feature, a privacy
nightmare which let meeting hosts
track whether participants had the
Zoom window — or some other app’s
window — in focus during a meeting. It
has also invested in new training
materials to teach users about the
security features like setting
passwords on meetings to avoid <a href="https://www.fbi.gov/contact-us/field-offices/boston/news/press-releases/fbi-warns-of-teleconferencing-and-online-classroom-hijacking-during-covid-19-pandemic" target="_blank">Zoom-bombing</a>,

<div>I'm glad they're fixing the faults
but some of these seem like it's going
to take quite a while. I'm no security
expert, but some people that I know
have been very concerned over these
revelations during the past week. If
there was no "bashing", they probably
wouldn't have treated these issues as
priority.<br>
