Note this wasn't related to that trial, nor is this intended to be some "imagine if the situations were reversed!" thread. My point is simply that a lawyer went into trial
Using a computer used by someone else (probably his kid) using a zoom filter
Is unable to turn it off without an assistant's help
These are the sorts of people who will decide if a meme is illegal.
With the rush to push everyone to home there's a ton of these non-tech inclined people doing quite a ton of things. I've been working from home at least some of the time since 2015 and was about 80% of the time at home before the WuFlu hit.
I'm either not allowed or encouraged to be careful when I'm at home with respect to using unsecure third party meeting software (e.g. Zoom), having smart devices like an Echo around, allowing anyone else to use my company computer, certain personal use of company computer, doing company business on my personal computer, etc. Bear in mind this is all to protect proprietary information for the most part. I could leak my entire computer and everything I have access to and no personal information like could be used for identity theft would be in it, except maybe my own.
When it all hit last year, I helped a couple people get things set up. Both were using personal computers that their kids also used occasionally, etc. It was just install a VPN and jump on the Zoom meeting or do your work right there. One of these people worked in payroll processing for God sake. Just piles and piles of personal information of people they were processing, you know Excel files full of data, etc. on someone's personal computer that isn't even sort of secure, encrypted, or anything. It's totally crazy and I was a bit mindblown.
Had to help a family friend on the other side of the country verify his dead wife's will last week, just did shit from my phone to avoid the headache, but then came having to e-verify the signature and me and his lawyer emailing back and forth and the woman telling me "whatever your dad did worked" and my dad going i don't know what the hell i did, ask your brother, and my brother going he just scribbled on his ipad.
Like jesus christ.
Which i did end up doing from my computer and i haven't heard back so i'm assuming its good.
