Oh, LINUX JOURNAL said so? Well that clears that up. God knows nobody at Linux Journal ever said that Linux was going to replace Windows on the desktop.
The problem with your conspiracy theory -- and that's exactly what it is -- is that having Skype in Luxembourge is a net plus for the NSA. Routing traffic INTO the US does the NSA no good -- they have to have court approval to snoop on calls within the US. Legally speaking, however, they can snoop on any and all traffic that involves furriners. So having all calls LEAVE the US is much more beneficial to them.

Oh, they have? And it hasn't?
Thanks.
