Given the stories about people hacking Zoom, I worry that a virtual Democratic Convention

might also be vulnerable.

I hope the DNC and Biden campaign are being proactive about protecting a virtual convention.

1. Definitely would not be a good look. I have faith, but expect perfection in

something like that.

2. There are other video conferencing platforms

But I hope the DNC has some good IT people.

3. There are better platforms and there are ways to secure Zoom

People are generally getting hacked because they have not secured their video conferences.

There are other platforms that can be used that are more secure.

The last thing to say is, it's actually a good thing all these flaws are being pointed out. It will force Zoom to improve the security of the product to keep it a viable platform in the market.

4. have a one day convention - ppl show up vote for the nominee then adjourn nt

5. It will go down under a fusillade

of Russian attacks. Trump will prevent any law enforcement action.

6. This is my worry as well.

I hope the Biden campaign can hire some ultra smart people to forestall this happening, but our Justice Department becoming Putin's puppet is a most definite drawback.
