Installing Zoom on your machine is a mistake.

Their install process is indistinguishable from malware abdv they have a history of shitting on security for all growth possible.

And sadly governments abd corporations rewarded them for it.

I'm not a big fan of Zoom, but on Linux they have signed packages for most distros. Pretty standard install mechanism.

those were mostly issues from around Covid when they suddenly exploded and hard to start caring about security
