I'm completely ignorant about these issues, but I wonder whether the 
public voice services (VoIP carriers inparticular) might not be required 
to provide some assurances.  Just as the USPS does secure, to some 
extent the packages and documents they transport.  Although, they do 
usually end up on an unsecured mailbox.
