This article https://webrtchacks.com/zoom-avoids-using-webrtc/ describes 
that Zoom is using non-browser video/audio code that runs in WebWorkers 
of your browser in WASM code, compiled from their regular code base.

It is a brave new world that Java applets outlined but hasn't delivered. 
Yey WASM! As Jason pointed out:

<whatever> If you know anyone who works on WASM multhreading, donate to 
them, make you company donate to them. </whatever>
