Zoom sued over OAP porn-bomb

A CHURCH is suing Zoom, claiming that the video- conferencing app’s security failures enabled a hacker to stream porn into a Bible- study class.

The X- rated content, played during the class at Saint Paulus Lutheran Church in San Francisco, was seen by the church’s administrator and elderly congregants, leaving them “traumatised and helpless”.

“Instead of providing Saint Paulus and its congregants with a password- protected and secure conferencing platform, Zoom allowed a ‘ known offender’ – one who ‘ has been reported multiple times’ – to Zoombomb the class,” the suit alleges.

Class attendees, most of them senior citizens, “had their computer screens hijacked and control buttons disabled while being forced to watch pornographic video footage,” the suit says.
