This was a meeting in my tiny town on renewable energy. There were about 20 people on this zoom meeting. We were twice bombed by two different naked men masturbating. The leader of the meeting was fairly quick to get rid of them, but not quick enough. I just wonder about the sick mentality of people who do these things.

(25,853 posts)Alexandria, VA, there was a young man who would hide in the stacks and masturbate where people like me could see him. I was too young to realize I needed to IMMEDIATELY go to the librarian and let her know.
There are, sadly, a lot of sick people out there.

2. email or phone the 20 people with the link
3. temporary links to the actual link. (details will vary)
4. credit card verification, same as star membership in DU

(13,890 posts)so its meetings must be open to the public. The state of NH requires that notice must be published and I don't believe it allows for passwords, etc. We can't charge for admission or ask for credit cards. We can ask people to identify themselves, but there is no way to verify that. We can't even limit participants to just townspeople. I'm thinking that the only solution is to be very fast with the delete key or something like that but it only takes a few seconds for someone to gross people out.

I am not a frequent Zoom user so my ideas are not sufficiently accurate.
2. the premise is that nationwide or worldwide invitation to predators is against the Constitution.
3. Make the legislature, governor, bureaucracy and Supreme Court come up with pro solutions.
its not your job to police every visitor who wants to get on camera
