Microsoft does want to spy on you?

Or at least let the NSA spy on you. [url]http://news.softpedia.com/news/Skype-Provided-Backdoor-Access-to-the-NSA-Before-Microsoft-Takeover-NYT-362384.shtml[/url] [quote]A report published by The New York Times and citing people who asked not to be named for obvious reasons, Skype developed its own user-monitoring system before the Microsoft acquisition in October 2011. It appears that US intelligence agencies have insisted that local software companies must cooperate closer with the NSA, so it asked several top vendors, including Skype, to put together secret teams to develop systems that would provide them with backdoor access to users’ conversations.

How does this make you feel?

  • Do you REALLY think M$ can't find a little system in skype? REALLY? It's M$, one of the largest software companies in the world for crying out loud. Wake up and see a little reality. If some podunk little website "knows" about this, don't you think Microsoft does too?
