That was a wonderful read, thank you.

The post mentions that Google made some fixes and reverted them due to customer complaints, do we know what those fixes were? Have they fixed the issue?

It looks like they fixed the brute forcing PIN issue. When I set up a new meeting, the phone in PIN is 9 digits long (compared to the 4 mentioned in the article)

However it seems the recurring meeting number+pin doesn't change. I feel this is a better UI, and only a minor risk with an easy workaround - update the meeting - which you would probably do anyway to remove the attendee who is no longer included

I just tested this since we use google meet. You can open an existing calendar event and remove the google meet details and recreate them. Seems to give you all new PIN and meet address.
