tl;dr: Summary not available
HN Discussion:
  • Zoom has a history of abusing privileges and cannot be trusted
  • Use the browser-based version instead of installing the desktop client
  • Zoom is outright malware that harms Linux users
  • ~This clipboard behavior is rude but technically allowed by X11, which is why Wayland exists
  • Curiosity about tooling mentioned in the article, unrelated to Zoom criticism
