Zoom's marketing and product make the claim that it uses “end-to-end encryption”, but video and audio content from meetings is not end-to-end encrypted
Zoom, the video conferencing service whose use has spiked amid the Covid-19 pandemic, claims to implement end-to-end encryption …

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://twitter.com/...
