the statement:
The encryption that Zoom uses to protect meetings is TLS, the same
technology that web servers use to secure HTTPS websites. This means
that the connection between the Zoom app running on a user’s computer
or phone and Zoom’s server is encrypted in the same way the connection
between your web browser and this article (on https://theintercept.com)
is encrypted. This is known as transport encryption, which is
different from end-to-end encryption because the Zoom service itself
can access the unencrypted video and audio content of Zoom meetings.
jumbles TLS with end to end. zoom could e.g. proxy or support rendevous of peer to peer connections and still use TLS to negotiate end-to-end encryption between the clients (though this would be MITMable). anyway.
