Communicating Anonymously

Current political trends may make you nervous about your electronic communications with anyone else. Well you're right to be scared. The US, UK and Canadian governments have build pervasive networks to snoop on your communications if they or anyone else is suspicious of you. That means it's also easy for criminals and corporations to see and hear what you are doing. Well there's a way to fight back.

Of course there's always encrypted email. But now, Phil Zimmermann, the same guy who brought us encrypted email is introducing encrypted VoIP technology. This is a good thing, as we could convievably get end-to-end private phone communications over the internet. Email, check, Phone, check; Internet... can now be surfed over several anonymizers. But there's now a Swedish company/network, Relakks, promising to give users an untraceable Swedish IP address.
