[cryptography] skype backdoor confirmation
So when I saw this article http://www.h-online.com/security/news/item/Skype-with-care-Microsoft-is-reading-everything-you-write-1862870.html I was disappointed the rumoured skype backdoor is claimed to be real, and that they have evidence. The method by which they confirmed is kind of odd - not only is skype eavesdropping but its doing head requests on SSL sites that have urls pasted in the skype chat!
