Skype inteception

I don't think I want Microsoft having 'backdoor access' to anything. From http://www.thetelecomblog.com/2011/06/29/microsoft-patents-legal-intercept-technology-will-skype-have-a-backdoor/
a newly patented Microsoft technology called ‘Legal Intercept‘ that would allow the company to secretly intercept, monitor and record Skype calls is stoking privacy concerns.
The technology would allow Microsoft to silently record communications on VoIP networks such as Skype. While some believe it’s no reason to panic, others believe it gives Microsoft or government officials a license to secretly intercept, monitor and record Skype calls while they are doing the unmentionable.
