Verisign

WHAAAAAT???

“To make wiretapping possible, Internet phone companies have to buy equipment and software as well as hire technicians, or contract with VeriSign or one of its competitors. The costs could run into the millions of dollars, depending on the size of the Internet phone company and the number of government requests.”

Verisign runs .com: it can set up MITM attacks. Verisign signs signatures: it can spoof signatures.

WHAAAAAAT???
