Using SKYPE. Any concerns or other situations you have encountered since Microsoft purchase? Thanks

Howdy,
We used SKYPE when the service was newly born; but we have not used this since Mircosoft purchasing the rights.
Do you have any concerns or otherwise using the current system?, i.e.; security, etc.
The only immediate issue I do consider is that international connections will be stored by the NSA. No doubt in my mind about this aspect. NSA has more than enough storage in Utah for this purpose.
Thank you.

  • I believe that if you use any phone, the NSA or other spy agencies are listening in for key words. Nothing is safe these days.
  • @catch22: You can be dam glad we have NSA, when I was in the Navy many moons ago, I worked for them.

    @Ted
