Re: The privacy angle
by nedu
In Bellovin, et al, Security Implications of Applying the Communications Assistance to Law Enforcement Act to Voice over IP (13 Jun 2006), the authors note on p.13:
There is a danger that intercept design features adopted for the benefit of legitimate law enforcement agencies could be used by others, rendering the entire Internet’s application space more vulnerable than it already is. This is very dangerous (and has more than privacy implications).
This isn't a new observation, but it's good to see it getting attention in a recent report by well-known and respected authors.
