There are not many people I would credit with having had an immense influence on my personality and development. Felix (FX) Lindner of Phenoelit is one of those people. On Sunday, I received the news that he has passed away. Although or perhaps precisely because we had not seen or spoken to each other for some time, I would like to share a few words about this extraordinary human being.

Who put the "Zoo" in "Zoom"?

What I keep hearing these days is:

"We/I do not use Zoom for confidential conversations."

But what if someone does not only care about the confidentiality of a Zoom-session but also about the integrity of his or her own endpoint device? It’s not only the spoken word of a group within a Zoom session that is at stake – it is also the integrity and confidentiality of everything a conference participant has stored on their computer.
