I don't blame people for being suspicious of Zoom either. I just find it sad that so many readers of Hackernews are endorsing logic that is so unscientific.

- feanaro 6y agoIn what way is it "unscientific"? That's an odd choice of words in this situation. What we're aiming for is rational and in this instance, it's perfectly rational to be suspicious based on an abductive argument and unproven extrapolation. As another commenter aptly noticed, once you're able to prove it, the harm has already been done.
- Aunche 6y agoHaving read the original comment again, I can see how it can be interpreted as suggesting to avoid Zoom as a precautionary measure, rather than accusing Zoom of wrongdoing. However, plenty of people are treating this incident as proof that Zoom is lying about encryption.
