I haven't really been following what is going on with Zoom. I have been vaguely aware of quite a few security issues.
However today I was linked youtube live stream from a friend on discord of some guy trolling random school classes while by pretending to be some sort of African Warlord. While his act was quite initially amusing and tbh harmless, it certainly didn't leave a positive impression of the software in my mind.
