Why you should think of deleting your zoom account?
No doubt zoom is helping many peoples in this lockdown in doing their works but there are many problems with zoom and it can be dangerous for your data security and the first thing is Zoom meetings are not end-to-end encrypted.
End-to-end encryption means no one can read or know the content shared between users by any method not even the company.
Zoom also has some flaws that hackers can use it to steal users data and there are already many news available on internet in which many users complained about their email id and photos leaks.
Some months ago, a report by Motherboard revealed that Zoom (iOS version) was sending its users data to Facebook. The app was sharing the user’s time zone and city with Facebook
whenever they open the app along with the device details. After learning about the report, the company was quick to act on it. Zoom released an update in which it removed the code which sent user data to Facebook.
Also, some users have alleged that the app shares its users data with third parties located in china.
All the flaws prove that zoom is not the best video conferencing platform in the online market, no doubt, it is very user friendly with intuitive interface and these are the reasons why platform is attracting millions of users but we should not ignore our security and privacy.
