After less than 24 hours of nothing but bad press, @zoom_us has issued an update to Zoom to completely remove the local web server and to restore the Safari security feature that prevents auto-joins. https://t.co/Kp7GIjOAJU

The @WIRED stories by @lilyhnewman is probably the best coverage of the current state. She's been doing an amazing job staying on top of this @zoom_us #vulnerability story.

Now we sit back and wait fo Zoom to follow through on the rest of their promises.https://t.co/DE6217TPau

Zoom, following backlash for initially refusing to fix a flaw in its app that allows an attacker to launch the Mac camera via a malicious link, releases a fix https://t.co/7UmW0Iz30N

Change of direction. @zoom_us will fix the flaw that let hackers hijack webcams on the Mac. Patch expected to be released by midnight tonight. https://t.co/5WjTi9dBHz

Good news. This reaction could have been faster, but it's good to see it happening nevertheless.

Now that @zoom_us has been shamed, they changed their tack. This is why researchers must disclose publicly after an appropriate delay. It gets results. #zoomgate https://t.co/v2B1jrwsMe

Kinda weird to see a company go so hard to bat in the name of saving you a dialogue box or two on Mac. But looks like Zoom is caving on that position. https://t.co/J5sDbbDOl8
