I wonder. Are all the vulnerabilities and issues with Zoom because of its popularity?
Everybody is using zoom these days and in my opinion it's because it has an excellent user experience.
I'm wondering if something like Cisco WebEx is just as "broken" but everyone doesn't have their eyes on it.
One thing for sure. We need a way to run desktop applications in isolated containers in the same way mobile apps are run.
I joined a WebEx meeting the other day, downloading it's client. And after the meeting a little window popped up with my next meetings.
Without permission it'd hooked into my outlook calendar.
At the the very least, we could have some sort of virtual file system that by default applications only see.
I'm sure the capability exists in windows, because there's a mod management tool for Skyrim I've used where it creates a virtual folder for all your activated mods and the game itself sees that virtual folder when running.
As an aside, remember when Skype was the most popular audio/video chat app in the world?
Or even MSN messenger?
I also remember Hangouts getting popular but then stagnating in using 100% CPU and setting fire to your laps.
