FBI Threatens ‘Zoom Bombing’ Trolls With Jail Time

The FBI is cracking down on the practice of Zoom bombing, saying the hijacking of web conferences can be punishable by jail time. The FBI last week warned of multiple reports of conferences being disrupted by pornographic or hate images and threatening language, in so-called Zoom-bombing attacks. Many of the attacks occur because web conferences are hosted on public channels and shared over the internet via URLs, making them accessible to anyone. The developers of Zoom have cautioned users to avoid sharing Zoom meeting links publicly (on social media) and to always make sure passwords are implemented.
