Re: I'll Skype you ..

Give them a break, routing all the VoIP traffic through north America is a massive technical undertaking.

They don't have to. When I tracked back pure European intercepts (both parties residing in Europe) I ended up with IP addresses in Microsoft Azure in Amsterdam and Ireland. I haven't found time to work out what determines Ireland or Holland, but if that data is leaving Europe it's through Microsoft in Europe, not directly.
