Anyone able to recommend a video conference solution with basic privacy in mind?
 
Free if possible.
10-12 participants needed

A friend wants to onboard us to zoom and I got spooked.

Everyone working remotely:

ZOOM monitors the activity on your computer and collects data on the programs running and captures which window you have focus on.

If you manage the calls, you can monitor what programs users on the call are running as well. It's fucked up.

It's a p2p video conference software. Works very well.

+1, I have setup an instance last week for friends and family and I have to say I am excited how good it works. Can even be hooked up to a SIP PBX so people from ordinary phones can join in.

In my case I used a VPS with 2 CPUs and 2GB RAM running Debian, tested it with 5-6 participants.
Had the first "virtual" dinner with parents yesterday and while strange it gave some feeling of normality.
