“Leadership at an East Vancouver synagogue say a Holocaust denier snuck into their virtual gathering this weekend, in what they’re calling a “Zoom bombing.” Due to public health orders banning in-person gatherings, synagogues like Or Shalom [Vancouver, BC] have turned to tools like Zoom. But Sunday evening, someone with what synagogue co-chair David Kauffman calls a “classically Jewish sounding name” logged in to take part, and kept their video off and microphone muted for most of the service before disrupting with what sounded like a recording of Holocaust denial at “a screaming level.”
