Florida police are investigating how a man infiltrated an online Zoom class and exposed himself to a class of eighth grade students. According to investigators, the suspect entered a class for pupils at Wolf Lake Middle School in Apopka, an Orlando suburb. The school moved its classes online in response to the Coronavirus pandemic. In a message to teachers, a school administrator noted that “an individual gained unauthorized access and exposed himself to the class” during a Zoom instructional session. School officials reported the incident to the Apopka Police Department, which has opened an investigation. The school administrator said that not every video conferencing application has been “vetted” and, as such, may not meet district standards. To better control access to virtual classrooms, teachers have been instructed to consider using Zoom’s “waiting room” feature, which allows online hosts to control whether a participant enters an online session.
