| illusion of privacy
this may be one more thing that telcos can throw out there to try and scuttle converts to VOIP.. if you really want secure communications, there are encyption protocols such as pgp that make messages and data secure. the simple fact is that those who had access to "tap" your fcc regulated phone line, have just about as much ability to "tap" a voip call. the illusion of privacy is just that.. an illusion. cell phones, same thing. if you need to get the information securely transferred, pgp (or other strong encryption)encrypted instant messaging and/or email is probably the best bet. or, in person |

| how many of these people all worried about voip security are using a cordless phone thta i can listen in on using a cheap scanner from radio shack.....seriously an article like this scares people that dont know what they are talking about..
seriously people wont buy an item over the net cause they think it is insecure think nothing of giving out a cc number on a cordless phone to make a purchase off the shopping channel.....amazing |

And the VoIP vendors will throw back how the telcos are already giving away your privacy you thought you had with the traditional land line. |
