I am not sure it is 100% in the past. Things I know they have done:
1. You can configure zoom to default to camera and mic being off.
2. They played around with the one click options so it is possible that an URL
can't directly launch a Zoom meeting.
The security issue was that Zoom created a http server on a separate TCP port
on your computer and if one communicated with that port one could open a zoom
meeting without first confirming with the computer owner that you wanted to
start a meeting. So by having microphone and camera initially off when Zoom
starts, even if somebody starts Zoom without a panel, they won't be able to spy
on you.
Best wishes,
Jonathan Cohn
