A dance instructor in the United States has filed a lawsuit against Zoom claiming that its security flaw allowed “uninvited men” to hack into her online sessions and harass her clients, according to a report by Fox Business.

As a result of the harassment, Texas-based Stacey Simins, who had been conducting burlesque and pole dancing lessons through Zoom since March, stated that she has had to cancel some sessions and lose clients. Simins has a Zoom Pro account and expected the video conferencing service to "be private and secure".
