'Namaste' to replace unsafe Zoom

-
As the Corona virus spreaded across the globe, many countries imposed lockdown. This was responsible to implement 'work from home' for many companies (specially IT field).

Due to work from home, the meetings were organised virtually. Various applications were used for conducting video conferencing. And the list was toped by Zoom, a company headquartered in San Jose, California. The downloads of the zoom app were dramatically increased by 1270% that is over 12 times from 22nd of February to 22nd of March. As a result Zoom's stock price hit to all time high in mid March.




The Corona Virus originated as a boon to Zoom.

But then Joe Cox writing for Vice Motherboard, reported on March 26 ,2020 that zoom ios app sends data to Facebook, even if you don't have a facebook account.

Then Micah Lee and Yael Grauer writing for the Intercept, reported on March 31,2020 that Zoom meetings are'nt end to end encrypted, despite misleading marketing.

People became aware about the news. Big tech giants such as Google banned the use of  Zoom. Thus there was time to find alternatives to zoom.  

Now a new video conferencing tool has been launched for Indian users - Say Namaste



Say Namaste is not actually an app but an online tool which can be accessed through web browser.
Say Namaste offers with live calling and chat options. It allows you to invite other users to a conference call using meeting link.

it is developed by Mumbai based web application and software development company called 
Inscripts.
  
Fun Fact -  The first video call was in 1956!

Stay secure always!
