Criminals Will Use 'Point-and-Click Wiretapping'

Via C|Net News.

In a story about his efforts to secure Internet phone calls, e-mail security hero Phil Zimmerman says encrypting voice over Internet Protocol is especially important because computer networks are not nearly as safe as the public switched telephone network.

"You can have point-and-click wiretapping," he said. "And look at who's going to be doing it. It's not just going to be the major government agencies. It's going to be organized crime. It's going to be criminals on the other side of the world."
