Internet trolls and other troublemakers have responded with "Zoombombing": joining Zoom meetings uninvited and disrupting them.

"Hackers are disrupting conferences and online classrooms with pornographic and/or hate images and threatening language," wrote the US Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Michigan. "Anyone who hacks into a teleconference can be charged with state or federal crimes."

Those are not even hackers, because security at Zoom is practically non-existant. It's just a poorly designed software, full of holes and lies.
