While this can be handy in certain situations, it DOES mean that people can join meetings to which they were not invited. Zoom even tried to mitigate this risk several months back when they made all admins decide if they wanted to require per-meeting passwords to join, in addition to the randomly generated meeting IDs we already use. At the time I decided it wasn’t worth the support headache, but I think if I had 1000+ untrained users instead of 200+ trained ones, I might have made a different decision.

As someone who uses and admins Zoom use, this looks a WHOLE lot more like what happens when you have a sudden 600%+ increase in use of Zoom without any training.
