For better or worse, it's really easy to get both small and large (i.e., very large -- hundreds of people) video calls going, and it possibly has the best cross-platform support out of every option available right now.
It's not buggy like at all. And afaiu the security stuff has solutions that just aren't default (passwords, SSO)
Security and privacy issues are clearly very real.
Post is flagged. What was it?
Oh that's unfortunate. It was a post providing proof & explaining that Zoom engineers set up an internal website to monitor certain people's zoom meetings, specifically women who were doing sexual things. I wonder why it got removed, it provided DNS registrar history evidence so it wasn't just hearsay.
