...." The telecommunications standards arm of the
U.N. has quietly endorsed the standardization of
technologies that could give governments and
companies the ability to sift through all of an
Internet user's traffic -- including emails, banking
transactions, and voice calls -- without adequate
privacy safeguards. The move suggests that some
governments hope for a world where even
encrypted communications may not be safe from
prying eyes."
