Nope. I don't even zoom with family/friends for non-sexual stuffs.

I just talk on the phone as a phone. No video necessary.

If my guy and I were apart for an extended period I'd consider it, other than that? No interest whatsoever.

Zoom, no. I've used a variety of video conference and teleconference methods over the years. Generally for professional or platonic purposes. Long distance relationship had a lot of Skype calls, some of which included flashing or teasing my partner. Thankfully that long distance garbage has been over for a long time.

I don’t know what the hell your problem with me is but you definitely don’t tel me what to do. This was my thread that I started and some of the admins are in this chat! You can back off

@Scarletbegonia was addressing another member... Not you. The offending post has since been deleted.

But way to be self centered and self victimizing in one post.

And, yes, the Mods are watching.

Uh, no. That kind of thing just doesn't truly appeal to me. Then again, downloading yet another social app for the sake of video/audio etc doesn't appeal to me either. Skype, hangouts, whatsapp, snap, messenger etc. You see the pattern, why keep adding more to accomplish essentially the same thing? Or, hell, most phones have ability to video call these days.

I'm curious of your motive behind asking. If you assumed that we hadn't, why ask? Not being snarky, to be clear there. Simply my own curiosity coming back to you.

if you mean camming for sexy fun then it's a big no from me, I actually find all that boring and a total turn off.
I don't actually do any kind of social media anymore cause it just takes over your time imo, I do occasionally use Skype but only to keep in touch with family, I'm a dinosaur I guess Lol.

I would have to agree with @EllieP - queen sized bed and king sized guy ;)

It depends on your it setup - cloud based services can do the trick (I would choose a free system from one of the bigger provides as a regular user - they all encrypt the channel - Zoom just had a hole plus they sold all your info to Facebook) but if you need the extra grunt on premise can be safer. Currently I use a Polycom setup with some added layers of encryption - basically the packets are encrypted/decrypted additionally by another piece of software. It's not cheap - and probably not for the average user but it works great and feels solid.

All right, Future Girl, you gonna speak English or not?

Zoom is still not secure, so if I doubt I will ever have a Zoom session with anyone. I prefer using encrypted video calls - or at least a more secure platform than Zoom.

So, what platforms should security minded folks be checking out?
