If it's not encrypted -- don't trust it.
If it is -- don't rely on it.

I run my own email server, and will be adding my own jabber server this summer. I also run my own Asterisk server. With EU data retention laws in place I won't use "public" services.
Lets not even get me started on
Echelon.
As for mobile phones, I cancelled mine at Christmas (after 8 years) due to the activation of clauses in RIPA in late October which require all mobile operators to log and retain:
1. Who made a call.
2. Where the call was made from (geographical location based on triangulation from cell towers as opposed to phone number)
3. Who received the call.
4. Where the call was received (triangulation again)
5. The time and duration of the call.
Orange are constantly harassing me to pay them for the rest of my contract but I refuse. I would rather go to court and argue my case.
