Zoom's questionable security confirmed

I know it’s in wiki, but Eric Yuan’s heart and soul and citizenship is American

His entire education was in China, and he applied nine times before getting a visa for the US, perhaps for his EMBA program. He was not born in the US. He is American only in that the company is on the NASDAQ. The majority of Zoom developers are in Beijing, so don't expect that the CCP does not have direct or indirect control.

The moment he does something that the CCP does not like is the moment they shut him down. They have him by his balls.
 
The only thing that is confirmed is that as long as you give a good product that is cheap (best is free) users will flock to you. All these high tech platforms including FB/Tik Tok/Snap have countless complaints and dubious privacy practices, but who cares? They just continue to grow and grown until replaced by another even better but equally dubious product.

It's one thing to have privacy/security issues due to technical flaws; it's another thing to cave in to the CCP govt's demands and engage in politically-motivated censorship despite being publicly listed as a US corporation, which was what Zoom was accused of doing.

Please do not attempt to muddy the waters. :wink:

By the way, Tik Tok (Douyin) is a hotbed of pro-CCP propaganda. But daft people believe it's a platform to make cute looping videos. :rolleyes:


Zoom admits cutting off activists' accounts in obedience to China
Meetings on Tiananmen Square massacre and Hong Kong crisis were taken down because Communist government complained

What's the big deal? FB/Twitter shuts down pro-China activists' accounts all the time as well. The only difference is CCP is dumb enough to directly order Zoom whereas FB/Twitter basically just claims those are "fake"accounts. Why are they fake? Don't know, you just have to take their word it is fake.

Anyway like I said, who cares? My point is Tik Tok and Zoom are still getting as popular as ever despite all this rah rah.
