    | I am pretty sure that both assumptions are wrong. Phone company (or
    | companies, I don't know how the messages are routed) will most certainly
    | be able to sniff your messages and forge the source address.

    As at least NetCom here in Norway allows one to send SMS's which seem
    to originate from your phone, but are really sent from the web, that
    last assumption is correct. IIRC, the police were quite annoyed when
    GSM was put into production, since they then had to go to the telco's
    switching centers in order to tap the line, so I guess the telco can
    still tap your conversations.
