My problem with this is Zoom's misleading claims. If Zoom can't implement end-to-end encryption, it shouldn't claim that it does.

- imglorp 7y agoI think they would claim the terminology is ambiguous. If the connection is encrypted between all clients and the central server, a business person might say that's end-to-end, ie all traffic in flight. The real test is peer-to-peer or not.
- viraptor 7y agoThat's not how E2E is defined... anywhere. Also you don't have to be P2P to support E2E.
- prophesi 7y agoI'm afraid of other services catching on to this "semantic loophole". Would changing the terminology to perhaps client-to-client encryption solve this?
- smileysteve 7y ago> If the connection is encrypted between all clients and the central server, a business person might say that's end-to-end, I think that's the problem being described. That is not end-to-end encrypted. It is, however, encrypted. Zoom simply needs to drop the "end-to-end" part.
