QUESTION:
The Rav doesn’t allow any use of Zoom or Torah websites, because it’s all tumah (impurity). So if a person feels a certain fondness about Zoom or Torah websites, because he learned Torah from these places, why is that not called a connection to the tumah of the Internet?
ANSWER:
It doesn’t seem to me that a person feels emotionally connected to the “Zoom” service itself [when he is using it for Torah classes]. The connection that one feels here is to the Torah that he learned from it, not to the Internet. However, this does not permit using it for Torah - in no circumstance is it permitted l’chatchilah to use Torah websites or Zoom for Torah classes.
