They are very unlikely to have end-to-end security in a couple of months, for the same reason few (if any) of their competitors have it: it is really bandwidth intensive to send full-resolution video of every participant to every other participant. So everyone sends low-res for most participants, and at most one high-resolution stream. To do this you have to be able to make low-resolution streams out of the high-resolution one people are sending you (to pass along to others). That means you have to terminate encryption on the server side. Once you have done that you are no longer "end-to-end". This is just the state of things.

This is a valid tradeoff for most things, but the real problem here is that Zoom claimed (and continues to claim) "end-to-end encryption", while not providing it. That is a lie, and people naturally wonder what else you are lying about.

You can also send two streams (high and low quality) from each client and make other clients request the right one from the server. Yes, it's slightly more bandwidth than before and now complexity. No, it doesn't require full mesh of connections to be E2E.
