I've always said I would never use zoom for security reasons.
But I read an article that a Chinese American was on zoom and wanted to
hold a candle vigil for those lost at tennamen square and ended up being
locked out of zoom.
The reason was is any user using zoom has to follow Chinese local laws
since zoom is owned by the Chinese. So any info used on zoom is
collected by the Chinese because its going through the great firewall in
China.
