Since this came up in chat and popped up in my news food, maybe zoom security weakness is real. Still scary that an amateur is better than Hollywood fox professionals.

With all the emphasis on online meetings recently I've seen a few references to big problems with Zoom's security.

And the above is just the first 2 returns on a quick search on duckduckgo with "zoom security issues".
On a related issue, my work has ditched WhatsApp and gone to Signal. Meh, I only log in once a day to check it anyway.

Take good care to keep relations civil

You need to set your alarm and join next week so I can laugh at your Outback ass accent for a few minutes. Then go right back to sleep. Actually you never woke up it will all just be a dream so I won’t really won’t be pissing myself in laughter.
Set your alarm fucker!

I won't be able to make it to this weekend's meetup. I'm decamping from my apartment to my parents' house on Saturday.
Someone else will need to create the zoom for this one.

We have been doing saturdays 4pm EDT which is 8pm GMT. Times are flexible I guess if we have a good reason to change. I’ll be able to start the the zoom room, I’ll set an alarm now so I’m not late again.
Also I downloaded tabletop simulator and it works quite well if people want to try some board games in the future.

Will the pass/ID be put in here or e-mailed or something?
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

I'm going to make a very poor assumption that EDT means Eastern Standard Time (aka New York City)?
