@DarkoneOfDamned @WynonnaEarp The problem with zoom is that it is very hackable and has been hit numerous times over the past few months that's the main reason I suggest Skype, just a little more secure.

And being distracted with terrible news, I may be better off keeping all Skype meetings on mute.

@BreitbartNews As far as I’m concerned, none of them need to return. They can Skype, Zoom like the rest of us. Think of all the money we could save. Plus K street wouldn’t be right down the street. Stay Home

So the optics are terrible and the opsec of using a personal cell phone or FT Zoom account unforgivable (this is what Skype numbers are literally for), but this isn’t a scandal and the reporter was definitely given the invite by employees who wanted accountability

@joesimonssays @corbinasmith No. Skype for work purposes is terrible. One of my clients use Skype, and every week someone on the call had issues with it.

@discord I'm having an issue on my @Google pixel 3 voice channel not letting me use an external microphone. Not a hardware issue. Works fine for zoom calls, phone calls, and Skype. Discord app picks up no signal.

@GayRobot_ @macolon2 @SkypeBusiness Yes, I know. They’re contract with my work is for Skype (when moved away from Teams). Regardless, they have a product that they’re still in charge of but not doing anything about it. This is one of my many issues w/ Microsoft.

@One_Dads_View I usually work from home a day a week. Even before this happened, I was thinking whether I could do two - my job involves hardly any face-to-face contact anyway as it’s mostly Skype calls. The issue is it’s against company policy - if I worked from home more, I’d have to ...
