An Internet privacy veteran and inventor of a popular email encryption scheme is launching a suite of new products next month that will allow people to scramble their mobile phone calls, e-mails, text messages and Internet voice and video calls.

Phil Zimmermann, creator of the standard email encryption known as PGP, which stands for ‘Pretty Good Privacy’, will roll out the private, encrypted communications tools on September 17 through his company, Silent Circle.
