[VOIPSEC] Skype Security Evaluation

[Eva Kuiper]

Erik,
I assume you mean no end-to-end encryption when the other end is not 
Skype. Right?

I was left wondering if the comparison with WEP and the CRC issue had 
any implications that should cause concern. It was mentioned almost in 
passing and not elaborated upon. I'd like to hear others' thoughts on 
whether or not this should be a concern.
