longer private in the least sense.  and cisco builds taps into all the

Voice over IP over IPSEC is still relatively private.

Internet over IPSEC or bi-directional keyed (auth+enc) SSL is still
relatively private.

Anything else never really was, even if it wasn't the government listening
to you before.

Agreed about the gov't throwing the constitution out the window, however.
