Apple issues silent update to remove a clandestine web server Zoom installed in older versions of its software that cant be removed through a standard uninstall process. The move follows an embarrassing information security incident for Zoom that began playing out earlier this week. A security researcher discovered that Zooms conferencing software could be involuntarily activated if someone visited a rigged web page or clicked a deceptive link. The company initially defended its decision to keep the local web server as part of its application, saying other software vendors use the same approach. But on Tuesday, it reversed its decision and issued an updated application that would remove it.”]
