Yeah you won't extract a large database with these methods, but you could extract an encryption key or SSH key ... a kilobyte goes a long way here

I've always found the "zero percent" financing to be misleading: if you opt to pay with cash there is usually a cash rebate (or equivalent) that makes your purchase price lower. This difference amounts to something like a 4%

Yeah, I'm not really suggesting that they failed entirely to encrypt the UDP traffic. But I am curious if what they have done has been scrutinized recently. Jitsi was formed in 2003 according to Wikipedia, there could be outdated choic

Zoom does screen sharing, right? Surely it's not transmitted uncompressed, but it is stationary for a long time and perhaps only small parts changing when they do (eg, switching slides). Is there an ECB-based weakness here?

The web app runs on TCP/443 and benefits from your Let's Encrypt cert. Jitsi also exposes UDP/10000 for receiving streams from clients, which doesn't go through apache/nginx. So what does it do for encryption there?

Considering/selecting Jitsi due to the self-hosted option shows evidence of a privacy/security oriented mindset. But I agree -- it's not sufficient.

Has Jitsi received any serious security scrutiny? Are they also making rookie mistakes?
