[perhaps off topic, but interesting security implications?]

I wonder if backdoors are installed to comply with
government & law enforcement requirements.  In the US,
Sen. Jay Rockefeller proposes to allow the POTUS to shutdown
public & private Internet for any reason they want?

Well back to Skype in the news:

Fact or hype?

FWIW,
Dan
