Microsoft Teams: 1 feature, 4 vulnerabilities

The pattern of stories indicated that it was a thing that got attention, so people went digging for whatever they could find and push. You don't need a conspiracy for something to get way more attention than others.

I am not trying to say Microsoft did anything unlawful. However, I am suspicious that these events in 2020 were coordinated.

I remember we knew about Zoom vulnerabilities in 2018 as well but I rarely used video conferencing and definitely not for "daily stand ups" however, I wouldn't discount Microsoft tried its best to "educate" reporters.

Megacorps feeding stories to journalists is not a “conspiracy theory.” It isn’t even a secret!

Would they drip-feed what they found though? Sounds like you need some form of coordination for that at least.

The "drip-feed" of people finding things not all at the same time, and basing their search on previous findings?
