I find it quite surprising that government agencies around the world are even considering using a US/Chinese-hosted video-conferencing system. Both countries have a long history of spying on pretty much all foreign nations wherever possible.
As terrible as Zoom is on security--they have a product that nobody else has created. I just want to click on a link from my email or from a text message and enter a meeting. With WebEx, I have to enter a 16 digit PIN code that I can never type right, right after dealing with browser plugins that doesn't work on my Mac. With Teams, I have to log in to my corporate domain, that doesn't like me using my personal device. Amazon Chime is a fairly decent alternative, I like the fact that it calls ME in advance of a meeting, but still requires downloads and isn't a video-centric product.<p>This should be an easy business opportunity. Give me easy access, E2E encryption, simultaneous screen sharing, whiteboarding, ability to mute other folks, good quality video/audio and I'll pay you thousands of dollars per year for my company to use that service in exchange for not routing my traffic through China.
