That would be the first reason I'd give to someone that questioned my "crank" statement.

The next one would be the PRISM connection (Skype architecture, etc), and FISA orders they're surely under.

It's not totally they're fault I don't trust them. Buuuuut, it is partly.

Definitely appreciate the feedback - lucky for me, I have removed myself from corporate tech bureaucracy, become self-employed, and can preach from my poor man's pulpit ;D
