No one - not even Blackberry can realistically do much about messages that
are encrypted by the sender. ?Even if these messages cannot be decrypted -
there may be of value to investigating agencies. ?Just knowing that so and
so sent encrypted messages to these persons and cleartext to these other

I do not support the governments actions - just pointing out the scope.
