Dear Roberto,

this is an ongoing issue due to OFAC restrictions in the US. Short of using a product from a non-US provider, there is no cure... apart from the fact that most of the people in the affected countries have mastered the use of VPN, for the simple reason that in many of these countries, some services are blocked locally and others services are also blocked due to OFAC. So I don't know it is a real issue.
BTW the situation in UAE is patchy. I have managed to use ZOOM in many parts of the country without VPN. When blocked, I just used VPN & problem solved.
Kindest regards,

Olivier

As many of us have heard, one issue about Zoom has been raised today at ICANN 67. I was not aware of the limitations - see below:

In view of more online meetings, is there anything that we should/could do to mitigate the problem? Do we have folks - or ALS - in those countries? Siavash comes to my mind - but I understand he is no longer with At-Large.

Cheers,

Roberto
