Just as your comment was aiming to narrowly point out a logical fallacy in the parent comment, I'm pointing out a flaw in your own: I disagree with your claim that investing in security practices is just theater, and that more concrete efforts in the same direction are irrelevant. The concrete efforts are Bayesian evidence that the newer investments are more than theater.

I didn't claim that. I believe in investing in security. I'm a security professional.

You said that those things are theater until the day the product updates. We are beyond the day when that happened. So for it to be a fallacy you have to reject the context in which it was presented, which nobody but you is doing.

It's a SaaS world, baby. Product updates (can) happen everyday. I'm not sure what that proved.

Good catch, that was a misphrasing in my comment. I meant to say _Zoom's_ investments in security, not security investments in general.
