Zoom will enable waiting rooms by default to stop Zoombombing
&quot;Building development teams that include skeptics and realists, rather than just visionary idealists, could keep ensure products get safeguarded from abuse before rather than after a scandal occurs.&quot;<p>On the face of it this sounds fair, but the problem is that being &quot;sceptical&quot; and &quot;realistic&quot; is far easier and requires much less effort than being &quot;visionary&quot;[1]. Too much of the former early on can really suck the life out of a team, increasing the risk that the product fails, or is simply never built.<p>Safeguarding from abuse is much better achieved by systematic thinking and discipline (which are learned skills) rather than hiring &quot;realists&quot; who might simply turn out to be whiners and energy vampires.<p>As much as Zoom is currently in the spotlight, and I can&#x27;t say I&#x27;m overjoyed by a number of the issues I&#x27;ve read about (e.g., encryption keys being passed through Chinese servers?!??), many of them are the problems of success, and every successful company has or will experience their fair share of those.<p><i>[1] I might also add that it&#x27;s far easier to commentate and to critique than to do, eh, TechCrunch?</i>
