Yeah somewhere in their documentation they state that they are end-to-end encrypted because the connections peer1 zoom and zoom peer2 are encrypted. I cant find the page anymore but they really tried to redefine the name for end to end encryption...

End-to-end encryption has been named as a required feature for telehealth in Australia. Interest in telehealth has gone from zero to infinity over the past two weeks for obvious reasons. So I've been trying really hard to work out if Zoom is E2E, and reached the same conclusions as the article. First, it isn't, and second, Zoom are really going out of their way to obscure that fact. It's great that The Intercept is t…

"“The laws of mathematics are very commendable, but the only law that applies in Australia is the law of Australia,” said Turnbull.

Ironically, the UK government in fact uses Zoom for all its meetings depsite privacy and security implications. Saudi Arabia, take note.

It's disappointing to see a company that has better tech than its rivals playing these games. I have been singing Zoom's praises, but this really makes me want to look elsewhere. What a bummer.

Does anyone know of a video conferencing system (3++++ participants) that actually does do end-to-end encryption?
From the Jitsi Meet README:
> WebRTC does not (yet) provide a way of conducting multi-party conversations with end-to-end encryption. Unless you consistently compare DTLS fingerprints with your peers vocally, the same goes for one-to-one calls.

Name one provider that claims to provide end-to-end encrypted video calls but doesn't.
GoToMeeting claims end to end encryption[1] and in the same sentence say it's just SSL just like Zoom. Never the less they offer call-in as well so end to end becomes impossible right there. I have serious doubts about any conference software offering real end to end encryption as it's unrealistic for clients to be dealing with that many av streams. 1. https://support.goto.com/meeting/help/security-faqs-g2m05001...
