Zoom says all over the place—on its app, website, security white paper—that its video calls are "end-to-end encrypted," but when @theintercept asked them about it they said:
— Trevor Timm (@trevortimm) March 31, 2020
“Currently, it is not possible to enable E2E encryption for Zoom video meetings." https://t.co/4e0oPg2tta
'Without end-to-end encryption, Zoom has the technical ability to spy on private video meetings and could be compelled to hand over recordings of meetings to governments or law enforcement in response to legal requests.' https://t.co/eg6DNGU86Y
— Josh Gerstein (@joshgerstein) March 31, 2020
End to middle ≠ end to end. By Zoom's definition, Gmail could be E2E encrypted even though it's sitting on a Google server. That lets Google do useful things (search, spam filtering), but it means Google doesn't get to brag email is E2E encrypted. https://t.co/jf7R1mz7u7
