    Let me be the first to say that I don't believe there is a great deal of
    "personal information" about ourselves that the NSA would not be able to
    find out if they wanted to. Be honest with yourself - is that really what
    you are trying to hide?

    The NSA likely has at least shortcuts to breaking most types of encryption -
    but probably doesn't bother unless there is some kind of a national threat.

    As someone recently posted, there is more to encyption than the algorithms
    themselves; as the government isn't going to detect encrypted messages, if
    you are already suspect, and then disregard them. You can read about
    uncrackable email on this page http://www.rogerpbrown.com/spy/home.html
