Let's talk less and do more. :)
How about adding encryption to kermit and iScreen so that they may
talk to each other in a secure manner? I am proposing these two
programs because they are widely portable. kermit works on most
Unix and MSDOS systems. iScreen works on most Unix systems.
(Note that this would solve the network/modem eavesdropping problem,
but not the untrusted remote system problem. The latter has no
solution in my opinion. You just have to trust the sysadmin.)
I propose writing a link encryption library which could be usable
in other comm and BBS programs.
Any takers?
BTW, watch for an encrypted Unix talk program coming to a ftp site
near you.
