When the engineers realised that their ‘key product differentiator’ was blocked by a security feature it should have been the end of that particular differentiator. Safari security features are there to be embraced and supported, not worked around and resented.
Consent in software is difficult. Clearly Zoom crossed a line by a) installing this web server without asking and b) not removing the web server when uninstalling the app.
The problem is that I don’t see how you can ever communicate to most end-users the implications of running a web server in this way, I suspect most would not even care and would resent even being asked during installation.

Can people stop using Facebook already? What have they brought us?
• Election meddling
• Monitoring across the Internet
• An assault to the open web
• A data mining operation hitherto unseen
• An increase in anti-vaxxers, and therefore measles
• A ‘privacy’ focused VPN that literally sends all your web traffic directly to them, which they then bribed impressionable teenagers to use
Thanks for the measles.
