So yeah, this has me more than a little perturbed. I generally don't have a problem sacrificing some privacy in return for functionality (the terms of service of several popular social networks come to mind), but this... is a bit of a different situation.

Does anybody have a good short-list of Skype alternatives? I don't know that its possible for me to stop using it altogether, but I'd certainly consider cutting back...



I would point you toward Jitsi: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jitsi

But, it doesn't support the Skype protocol, and it runs on Java, with which some people have an issue (but also allows for cross-platform compatibility).
