What protection do you have against wiretaps in North America whether they are done legally or not? How do you know that your call originating and terminating in North America is not being routed/switched via another country where there is no legal protection against wiretaps? Do you naively believe that security agencies and goverment employees in any country always adhere to legal requirements? And how would you even know if your telephone call on the PSTN side of the VOIP -> PSTN call had been intercepted? If you want to keep your conversation secret, you should not be using the public telephone network no matter in which country you are making the call. All an encrypted call to a VOIP->PSTN gateway will assure you with is that nobody in the Internet chain between you and the VOIP company can listen in, unless of course they have already cracked the encryption method. _______________________________________________ Linphone-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/linphone-users
