Hello Aaron, 

Forgive my ignorance, but I'm a bit confused, I thought Jitsi already
had end-to-end, at least for P2P calls?

	"Jitsi meetings can operate in 2 ways:  peer-to-peer (P2P) or via the
Jitsi Videobridge (JVB). This is  transparent to the user. P2P mode is
only used for 1-to-1 meetings. In  this case, audio and video are
encrypted all the way from the sender to  the receiver, even if they
traverse network components like TURN  servers."

	Did I get it wrong?
	Kind regards,

Federico

team are working on such features.  Check out https://jitsi.org/ or
our flagship deployment https://meet.jit.si/

We hope to be layering on end-to-end encryption features, and would
happily take community contributions.

Cheers,

Hey all,

Read the Intercept article in the link below. 

Seems like we need a truly encrypted and open-source Zoom alternative.


Anyone interested in developing one? Email me privately.

And please share with your million closest friends.

Thank you,
Yosem
