Excerpt:
Jennifer Caukin, Skype's director of corporate communications
replied to us: "We have not received any subpoenas or court
orders asking us to perform a live interception or wiretap of
Skype-to-Skype communications. In any event, because of Skype's
peer-to-peer architecture and encryption techniques, Skype would
not be able to comply with such a request."
