I think it is great to see Zoom investing more on security.
I am quite surprised to see many people reacted as if scrypt, Salsa 20, AES (which forms Keybase’s TripleSec) has been simultaneously cracked the moment the acquisition was announced and the encrypted keys are no longer safe and suddenly reverted to plain text.
I don’t think Zoom has any malicious intent (I think recent security news more likely has to do with negligence rather than malice).
I don’t think I need to delete my Keybase account, because although I don’t necessarily trust the company, maybe I can trust their algorithm.
These are exactly my thoughts too. Keybase encryption is built on sound principles, it would be hard to break that. I'll wait and see if I need to move off of it.
