The video-conferencing behemoth Zoom has been hit with yet another lawsuit stemming from its claim to offer end-to-end encryption for sessions. A nonprofit advocacy group called Consumer Watchdog alleges that Zoom falsely told users that it offers full encryption. The suit is asking for an injunction against Zoom to prevent it from misrepresenting its security measures to consumers; statutory damages under the CCPA, which allows fines of up to $1,500 per violation. The lawsuit also alleges Zoom routed some conferences through servers in China, placing users at further risk to eavesdropping and privacy violations.
