ICANN is using Zoom for their online meetings.


They have no plans to move to another solution and to be honest I totally agree with their position.

 

Every single bit of software out there has issues of some kind. Most of the really big issues with Zoom have been addressed and many of the other ones are down to settings an account or meeting.

 

If you want to use ICANN’s meeting facilities or join online events you have to use the solution they are using. You cannot expect them to keep switching from one solution to another constantly.

 

 

Regards

 

Michele

Dear colleagues,

hope my email finds you well.

 

I' m backing the statements of Hudobnik regarding the privacy risks over Zoom app,

therefore I propose and recommend by the time-being using the bluejeans facilities:

https://bluejeans.com

 

Would it be possible to use this app for the upcoming meeting?

 

Thank you.

Kind Regards,

 

Natalia RUSU

Dear Adam, thank you so much for the clarification but there are still a lot of corners regarding zoom. Despite the fact of the update and changes of their privacy policy.

Here just two examples:

Take care and have a nice day!

Best,

Hi Annette, All;

 

ICANN's IT staff are confident in using Zoom.  We have implemented passwords for all meetings, and addressed the concerns you'll see in the FBI review of Zoom's privacy and security issues.  A lot of these concerns could be addressed through Zoom settings, ICANN staff we aware of these and had already changed the defaults for our meetings. We are also working direct with Zoom and feel confident they are doing a good job.  And long may this continue!

 

Keep a look out for updates for the applications you use and keep things updated.

 

Warm regards,

 

Adam

Dear All,

This is an important discussion. But that it takes place on “zoom” is a said proof of a lack of a well functioning user centered IT-Infrastructure.

Any alternatives we can use in the future?

 

Zoom proofed to be very problematic:
