Indonesia still using Zoom despite security flaws


JAKARTA (The Jakarta Post/ANN): Private employee Juliana Ekaputri, 26, said she was surprised after seeing a video last Friday (April 24) from her colleague showing how videoconferencing application Zoom had caused her colleague’s computer to be hacked.

The video reminded her that about a week before, she received a notification saying that someone had tried to log in to her Yahoo account. Upon hearing her coworker’s story, she suspected that it was because she had used Zoom several times to contact her friends during the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. She immediately uninstalled the Zoom app on her phone.
