Chinese And Skype!

I was just reading that a Canadian researcher has found out that the Chinese government is listening in on Skype communications. It seems that the Chinese government won’t give their people any contact with the outside world. They only can hold them back for so long before they totally turn against the government. It seems that they’re snooping by using keywords like “democracy.” I wonder if they’re listening in how keywords like power steering rack. I would be willing to bet that they’re not. I do think this is totally wrong what the Chinese government is doing. I also feel that Skype needs to find away to stop the snooping. But they’re probably showing them how to snoop. This is the only way Skype is able to get their service to the Chinese. I know Google lets the Chinese government snoops on keyword searches. Some day the Chinese people will stand up to the government with full force and they will have no clue what to do.
