Anonymity on mobile devices

Mobile comunication anonymity is good, and probably something that is 
needful as well. I don't personally think that I would be comfortable 
broadcasting wirelessly any information that I was trying to keep personal. 
Not to knock SSL and TOR or any other encryption scheems, but any code can 
be broken given time. (Maybe not easily, but in theory it can be done) 
Overall the scheme is probably secure, but the biggest potential weakness 
probably lies in the wireless broadcast of information. At the very least it 
makes it much easier for "the man" to watch both ends of the connection.
 but this is all theoretical, odds are that you are more than secure with 
this scheme.
