Following two weeks of growing security concerns about the Zoom Video Conferencing Software, the United States Senate and Google have now banned the use of the software by any U.S. Representatives and Google Employees.
Both bans come just a few days after schools in New York City’s Department of Education barred teachers from using the app to teach students remotely. The FBI warned Americans last month of a practice called “Zoombombing,” which entails hijacking of video conferences by uninvited guests.

Zoom has grown in popularity in recent weeks because of the stay-at-home order posed by the Coronavirus.
