> I'd call Skype anything but random

I suspect week ago, people would have said "It's not just 'some random executable', it's _Zoom!_ What're they gonna do, leave an undisclosed web server running on your machine that allows them to remotely install whatever software they want? Ah ha! You're so paranoid!!!"

And how exactly is Hangouts better? I mean I sort of get your argument and what you are trying to tell, but what's your punch line here?

At least some people trust Google more than they trust Zoom?

I don't, and I wish I can quit using gmail too, but I still need to find the alternative.

And what about my initial question?

Yes, that statement was contradictory and I realize I should stop using Hangouts too.

Does that answer your question?
