Details of GSM voice encryption algorithm "illegally" published

Of course, the entities most interested in tapping wireless calls
have no need for such techniques, since they're already wired
directly into the serving networks via CALEA and the like.

Also, if memory serves, calls made via GSM 3G already are encrypted
via a form of A5/3 on the air link.
