I have done the secure chat thing before. We preferred to use our own

We used to run our own servers at Akamai as well (Jabber back then).
I'll take a look.
I have not researched or implemented a secure voice system that would be
applicable here.
So far, I've struck out in my search. It seems what was, is no more. I'm
tempted to write one. If the client really wants it, I can code it. The
question is how bad do they want it?
I'm not yet through looking for some existing technology though.
To be truely secure, you have to go with an openstandards product. Or
roll your own. Voip over an ipsec tunnel. The Government used STUIII
phones from motorola, and you had to have one at each end. If they
control both ends of the conversation, then they can tunnel something.
Going over the PTSN will require something along the lines of the STU
though. Reading about how India doesn't like blackberry's because RIM
didn't put a back door in the crytpo. Leave it to a government to want
to snoop on everyone's conversation. It still cracks me up when people
think "It's ok, I don't have anything to hide..."
