What an absolute embarrassment for Zoom.  They literally were in a very coveted position in the video conferencing market and screwed it up royally.  The CEO should be fired right now.  There is absolutely no excuse to have those kind of security issues, especially when the company has been in business for as long as it has been.  

They got comfortable and lazy.  No other way to say it.  Shame on them, shame on the CEO.

It’s not just Apple, but Tim Cook has made it a significant part of his tenure as CEO to espouse Apple’s “core company values” and has certainly made an effort to make his voice heard on inequality etc as he sees it in the US. For this reason alone he and Apple deserve to be singled out for how they have handled themselves with regard to China and Hong Kong. Should Tim and the board insist on dragging the company into politically charged issues in the US he should have the stones to be consistent in all countries where they do business. Otherwise he should stick to business and focus on the company and shareholders only. He’s doing a disservice to both the company and its customers around the world at the same time with his inconsistency. I say this as someone who likes that Apple speaks out on cultural issues. However, if they insist on doing so in the safety of the US they should have the strength of character to stand up for the right thing everywhere, regardless of the fallout. Apple risks being labeled as opportunistic grandstanders for only having the courage to speak out in regions where they are safe to do so.

Their primary duty is to make a profit. If anyone is going to criticize China and have it mean something, it’ll be US leaders and lawmakers.
