In my own VoIP setup there is a huge hole for a security agency to tap calls, even if the packets were encoded. I have a bridge to a regular 900 mhz cordless phone (with a weak encryption, I believe), so all the NSA has to do is park outside my door and listen to the radio transmissions (it would be pretty boring job). If I were using a headset instead, they would have to get a little more sophisticated and listen to the weak RF the mic radiates.

I'd need a warrant to park a van outside your house and listen to the spread spectrum cordless traffic, and I can't get that just because you're encrypting your calls.
