On April 16, between 2:25 P.M. ET and 4:12 P.M. ET, the domain zoom.us was not available due to a server block by GoDaddy Registry. This block was the result of a communication error between Zoom’s domain registrar, Markmonitor, and GoDaddy Registry, which resulted in GoDaddy Registry mistakenly shutting down zoom.us domain. Zoom, Markmonitor, and GoDaddy worked quickly to identify and remove the block, which restored service to the domain zoom.us. There was no product, security or network failure at Zoom during the outage. GoDaddy and Markmonitor are working together to prevent this from happening again.

How can someone else host when I am ill?

I have a paid ZoomOne account I use for a once a month writers group. I have a serious illness. How can I have a specific person from the group log on and host without my involvement if I am too ill to get out of bed. We practiced last evening and she could log on with my credentials, but got a pop up that saying that I needed to click Allow on my device in order for her to continue. If I were ill, I would not be able to click allow.

I would suggest that you click "Allow" on your device. The end the meeting and try it again. You'll see that they do not get prompted again, as long as they are using the same computer. This is a security feature that confirms to Zoom that this is an acceptable login, although it is coming from an unfamiliar device. Once you train Zoom that that computer is ok, then everything should be ok.
