I really hope they just extend the password to 8 upper letters (200 billion combinations) or 10 digits.

If they go for a longer and alphanumeric password as it seems they are doing, I am gonna dread having to enter that manually whenever joining a meeting, all because an hypothetically attacker might join in. Might as well switch back to webex for usability.




you're entering passwords manually to enter zoom meetings? I don't think I've ever done that, usually they are included (hashed) in the URL distributed to participants, as the OP mentioned several examples of.


Can't copy/paste from my desktop to my mobile, or the other way around. Can't copy/paste to the video conference system of a meeting room either.


Some environments don’t allow copy and paste.

For example blackberry work (depending on configuration) on a private phone.
