Trying to help my town public meetings avoid random internet jerks joining the Zoom and spamming racist stuff.
How do these kids usually find public Zoom meetings to harass?
Trying random IDs?
Searching/scraping the web for Zoom links?
What do other places do with public Zoom meetings to minimize this?
@marcoarment a few things worked for us at the start of the Zoom era for “open” meetings:
- attendees must preregister using either Zoom itself or another product like Eventbrite
- mail registrants the meeting ID (unique for every meeting open to the public) and the
- unique password for every meeting (that is open to the public)
- only allow verified Zoom accounts to join the meeting
Never had an issue since. Preregistration is not a forté of Zoom Bombers
