The police can target as much as they like. They’re not about to crack Skype. It’s beyond the resources of any police force and probably any government (today). As a European outfit Skype is within it’s rights not to reveal it’s proprietary encryption technology.
The Italian mafia figured this out and use it impunity and no doubt so does Silvio.
