Internet trolls who crash Zoom-based AA meetings with racist slurs, porn and Nazi propaganda “don’t fully grasp that this is something that people really need”
Philip McGrade was attending an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting over the videoconferencing service Zoom when a message suddenly appeared on the screen. “Hitler did nothing wrong,” it read.
