Sharing information is the key to our success and the more we share the more we care.

I did not think that your post was negative, I just expressed my opinion.  Your knowledge is valuable to all of us and we appreciate it if you continue to share information to all of us.

I’m sorry if you thought my post was negative.  I like technology and sharing my knowledge about it.  Anybody who knows me knows that I am always willing to help people with technical problems and if I don’t know the answer I do research.

Yes, they have had some security concerns, but what application that has the ability to house 1000 users is going to truly be devoid of security risk. Some people don't really have anything to do, so they spend their time creating scams and hacks. The world has been like that for ages. I think some blind people just are a little afraid of change, so learning something like Zoom is scary for them. There are great tutorials out there, and even a book written. It works well on the computer and phone, and again I'm just not sure what all the fuss is about really.

>> Annoying as it is, there's a lot of truth in his points. Being a techy, I've watched all of this unfold (including the Mac thing a year ago).
>> People want as few clicks as possible, but those extra clicks are what keep malicious apps from being able to spy on them, at least directly. For the NFB and other blind people and organizations, or at least people who don't care about video, there are plenty of alternatives that can work across PCs, Mac, phones, Chromebooks, even phones. It would take about half an hour to set up, maybe more to enhance the integration of components.
