Unfortunately what I've found is that anything that claims "high security" or P2P technology means that they don't support the ability to record all broadcasts on a central server. I understand and appreciate where those products are coming from, but education institutions have policies that require all communications to be reviewed and audited.

  Then they're probably going to have to roll their own.

  Really? I would of figured anything that claims to be "high security" was just making delusional marketing points and was the same bog standard security you would get elsewhere. You are less cynical than I.

    GhotiFish, Why do you give snarky trolls like kevinxucs advice on how to avoid/circumvent the hellban? If you took the time to read his post history, you'd see he's exactly the kind of 1 line, trollish, thoughtless commenter that we don't want to see in HN.

      ... are you... looking at the same user I am? https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=kevinxucs https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=kevinxucs I can make the following deductions about him. 1. This user is young, likely male, opinionated. None of these are problems. 2. This user tried take a shot at IE to posture socially, and did not expect that tact to fail. 3. When he was down voted, he changed his behaviour. I told him exactly because of his post history. It tells a very clear story of what happened. A very clear and unfair story. edit: Oh wait, you have show dead off, don't you? Yah turn that on, it paints a different picture.

  I guess it would be possible to build a client that always connect to a recording peer (and don't allow to disconnect it)? Since they seem to build a product around whatever solution they will pick, they could as well do that with jitsi. What am I missing?
