Ask the City Council and Mayor/Police Chief of Leon Valley, Texas, how they feel about using Zoom to broadcast their public hearings during the Coronavirus lock down. After many months of harassing citizens and illegally charging people with crimes, bullying them, and breaking many laws themselves, the City found themselves watching LIVE porn last week during their big public meeting which was broadcast across the interwebz in real time. Their reactions were priceless as it took them a few moments to even realize what had actually happened and what they were viewing, the ramifications, etc. omegalulz. PWND. ;-)

Because I'm a math major, tuning into videos is pretty much necessary for me. At first, I always tuned into meetings from my browser, but ever since the end of March, I haven't been able to do that thanks to my uni making things more strict (to protect from zoombombings ostensibly. As a result, I've been forced to use their desktop client inside my Windows VM. I don't have enough storage on my SSD to comfortably allocate two Windows VMs, so unfortunately that same Windows VM houses my steam info and all that (because it was originally meant for pci passthrough gaming.

Just to add a special note, the damage caused by these breaches haven't been made public because the corporate and political secrets that were obtained through these exploits are of the magnitude that could potentially trigger a power shift among the Big Globetrotters. I'd wager that Wall Street made plenty of investment decisions based upon intel gleaned from Zoom and political opponents had a literal field day. That kind of revolution is rarely televised.

I've had to use Zoom for a few things and so I have installed the app on a couple of my PC's. But in terms of privacy, I've resisted getting an account up to this point and so I just let someone else host it and then join it without signing up (which thankfully you can totally do. Then I'm also able to video call and screenshare essentially without giving out any personal info at all other than a first name.

11: 14 If memory serves me right the problem with ecb is that blocks of text are basically just XOR-ed with the key to en- and decrypt. This means you only have to guess the key length and are then able to compare the distribution of symbols in the cypher with the distribution of symbols expected in the plain text (for English text this would be the distribution of letters used in sentences)

Techlore, you did an amazing job at researching this subject, and followed-up with another amazing job at organizing it and presenting it in this video.
You touched on every key item, and gave each one the scrutiny, history, and status it merits.
Very impressive.
I watched the entire video. But to be honest, I watched it at 1. 5x normal speed. ;-)

Unfortunately I have to use Zoom for work and organize meetings as well - we are in the project management sector. I am running Zoom on Ubuntu in a Virtual machine and upload any files I might need for screen sharing beforehand then disable guest to host clipboard and drag n drop.
reply

I had to use zoom as the host account. So what I did is to create a new email account only for zoom and then join the meetings from my phone as a guest. I did not try to hide my IP in any of the devices due to latency problems etc.

In terms of how to properly hide your Caller ID (-67 ain't gonna cut it, I defer to a relative master of the art, Russell over at -Ownage Pranks. - He's been doing it for years, makes a living this way, and has what you need to know.
