Skype with (s)care

I think what's most controversial, is that foreign countries, which shouldn't have any jurisdiction in other countries, have the power to spy on you. IMO this is an instrument of global repression soon to come.

@Crivens, great link! Thank you very much :)!

I have just written a program (over a year ago) which allows speaking/voice (no video) using plain server-client architecture. Just in plain C. Reading/writing to/from /dev/dsp (with some ioctl to set Hz, bits etc), next use sppex or vorbis to encode/decode this sound. I would only need to add encryption (which is really simple) to have it 99% secure.

This is the simplest program imagined - no single line of GUI.

Start server as ./cvoice -d (becomes daemon), next call it from client - no ringing, voice transfer just starts. I've written this because Skype had no option to configure voice parameters - while I could lower it to 8 bit, mono, 6500 Hz + Speex compressions which gives 400-500 BPS bps and allowed me to talk with wife from Spitsbergen while Skype had not enough bandwidth to make a call.
