Some people, myself included, think that the anonymity offered by the
sheer scale of the Internet outweighs the risk of identifying your
message as "interesting" by including an easy to spot encryption
header or similar.  Some people allege that "governments" only filter
encrypted traffic, on the assumption that that's how "terrorists" are
communicating.  On that subject, I don't think that the "government"
needs to snoop my e-mail to get my CC details, or anything else for
that matter...

Once you turn over this stone, however, it's not long before you're
employing steganography and by the end of the week you'll be sleeping
under the bed with a gun!

Oh no, now you've got me started.  Sorry.
