Though not an expert on this [ask some trusted White Hat Hackers], it is my understanding from reading non-technical literature on this subject that most proprietary encryption software have 'NSA backdoors or keys'; as mentioned above, most PGP encryption can be unlocked and viewed by 'watching' how the computer is unencrypting it; and, that the only people one is hiding anything from are other mortals [rather than intelligence, especially electronic intelligence agencies - US and some others]. ONLY custom made very advanced huge prime number encrypted things are safe [sort of].....NSA and others can [if they devote the considerable computer power/time to it, with effort still decrypt almost all of them [and these are not your usual encryption algorithms]. Usually, they just store all encrypted messages, decrypt as they are storing the 'easy ones' [along with most of the unencrypted ones], and later can decrypt higher level encrypted ones if they are curious and/or suspicious. While they realize that some encrypt just to be 'cool'; encryption + political dissent/disagreements [as they define it] with 'the Empire' = a graded and greater level of attention and suspicion, often. Its back to written letters, furtively exchanged hand to hand (and using dead drops, etc.), if you really have something secret to pass on to someone else.....The only thing going for us, is they do not have the time or manpower to look at everything and everyone - although they collect everything from everyone [if they need to 'go back' and look/listen]
