    Ya, this guy is toast. He just told the world he thinks his product sucks - the sane know he’s wrong at least.

      The product sucks for work and productivity purposes. It can still be useful for meetings where productivity is not a factor (social, medical, many other situations.)

      I don’t really care which teleconferencing software I use but without zoom I would lose access to several medical providers and need to travel a couple hours to them which is untenable.

        I gotta say I’m shocked that Zoom is secure enough for use in patient care given how heavily regulated the industry is

          Do you really think any doctors gave a second of thought to patient privacy when they made those decisions?

          Everybody was in a tizzy because of COVID so everyone just said “I’ve heard of zoom! Let’s use that! Other people are using it so it must be fine!” And nobody gave a split fucking second of thought to computer security.

          They have a HIPAA-compliant version although not sure how secure it really is. In general, companies seem to care more about companies’ privacy than individuals.

      From a security perspective, the product has sucked for many years now, but it never halted their popularity. If he can survive Apple needing to intervent to remove a web server they installed on people’s machines, he’ll survive this.
