Internet era espionage pits spy against tech


At a recent DefCon gathering of computer "hackers" in Las Vegas, startup Whisper Systems released free software to encrypt Internet telephone calls and text messages on smartphones running on Google-backed Android software.

People intent on scrambling digital communications could also piggyback onto online forums that have encryption capabilities, or even take advantage of encryption in seemingly innocent missives such as electronic greet cards.

"This is really a cat-and-mouse game between intelligence agencies and terrorist organizations," Bumgarner said.

"Within a few minutes I can establish an encrypted call with almost anyone anywhere in the world that cannot be intercepted by intelligence agencies."

Yeah seems like a right wing job. They make big statements when it comes to defense and security but reality always wins.
