Network VOIP

That's nice if you control both ends of the call.

What does these privacy concerns mean for people who are using VOIP without knowing it, either because at some point the call goes voip or because they're using a voice product from their cable company or ISP?

VoIP encryption

Even if the government does require a backdoor, would it still be illegal for a company to distribute an encryption program on the web that could be installed by the sender and recipient on their client or cell phone? Then the ISPs would be off the hook and those who wanted could talk privately without worry of spying.
