This news will make some of you feel counterintuitive, especially if you've gotten worse on Face book over the past year or so because of privacy and security issues. By now, most of you may have realized that videoconferencing software Zoom has experienced the same rebound in the past few weeks because its popularity has soared because millions of people are trapped at home. Unfortunately, the number of users of the service has increased sharply, from 10 million in December to 200m in March, accompanied by one controversy after another. All annoying strangers "magnify" people's video calls, revealing that some zoom users' email addresses and photos have been leaked, as well as additional public relations nightmares, including some call data being sent to non-users, and ZoomiOS apps quietly sending analysis data to Face book.

Now, in dealing with these and other security and privacy issues, Zom calls for some help: in the form of Alex Stamos, the former chief security officer of Face book.

It's easy to shake your head after watching this news, but it's rich, so turn to former Face book executives to solve these problems. It is worth pointing out that Stamos left Face book two years ago to become director of Stanford University's Internet Observatory and has attracted a lot of attention in the field of privacy and security. Through his Twitter account, he is also an enthusiastic advocate of user privacy and similar issues.

Last week I posted a Weibo message about Zoom and got a call from CEO @ Eric Shuan. We had a good chat. I am pleased to say that I will help Zoom set up their security plan.

In a media article published on Wednesday, Stamos explained that last week he received a call from Eric Yuan, founder and CEO of Zoom, after Yuan had read some tweets about the problems facing Zoom. "We talked about the main challenge facing his company, which is to deal with incredible user growth and meet current security expectations," Stamos wrote. He asked detailed and thoughtful questions about my work experience in a company facing extreme crisis. I was impressed by his clear vision of Zoom as a trusted platform and his willingness to take positive action to achieve it.
