alx5000 writes "Not that long after Apple's iPhone 4 Antennagate, it's now Google's turn to remind us how smartphones are increasingly more "smart" and less "phone": a failure on the new Nexus S makes the phone reboot mid-call mostly during calls longer that 3 minutes, but even during shorter ones. If this turns to be a software problem, things could get hairy, with Gingerbread for the rest of Android terminals just around the corner."

Well, okay, but say you are the government of Iran or Thailand and you don't want anyone to organize anything against you. Outlawing secure mobile communications would be pretty handy for that.

Yes, your message is secure, but without some kind of steganographic method, the fact that you're using encryption is not. And neither are you, for that matter.
