Think how many private business meetings have been conducted over Skype. Anything from board meetings, sensitive HR issues, acquisition or takeover discussions, to new product roadmaps. Now think about all that corporate espionage material being in the hands of the government. Think about how much private sexual activity between physically separated partners is conducted over Skype. Anything from a lonely grunt serving in the military trying to get a little private time with his wife back at home, to outright video sex between a prostitute or camgirl (or camboy) with a john (or jane). Now think about all that blackmail material being in the hands of the government.
