TL;DR
- Google Meet now generates a new meeting link whenever you change a recurring event’s start time or frequency.
- The update keeps all original settings, such as hosts, co-hosts, and recording permissions, while giving you a refreshed link for added protection.
- Previously, recurring meetings reused the same link, making it easy for anyone with an old URL to slip into future sessions.
Do you remember when “Zoom bombing” was all over the news? While the frenzy has died down, the threat to your online privacy and productivity never really went away. If you have an old Google Meet link in a recurring calendar event, it could be an easy way in for unwanted guests. To address that concern, Google has rolled out a new update that helps keep gatecrashers out for good whenever you change a meeting’s recurrence or start time in Google Meet.
