Indian Blackberry network given 15 days to allow government snooping or shut down {Engadget Mobile}
Mar 26th 2008 2:20AM Most people in India care about national security and don't mind the govt accessing our communications. Rather my govt than some western govt.
So mind your own business and STFU. If you want to lecture someone go lecture your own governments, we dont need your advice. We would rather not be blown up by terrorists than appear all liberal and cool.
Indian Blackberry network given 15 days to allow government snooping or shut down {Engadget Mobile}
Mar 25th 2008 4:23PM Do you think the NSA or any of the western govt agencies do not snoop on the Blackberry comunications of every country on the planet. Get off your self-righteous western ass and stop advising other countries what to do. If you cant get your own providers to say FU to your own governments, shut up and do something more productive.
Also, I dont think the article gives the full picture. One of the major concerns for the government was that it appeared that ALL traffic (including local traffic between two blackberrys in India) was being routed through the server in Canada as they had not set up such infrastructure in India. As more and more govt officials and company execs in India get blackberrys, the govt wants to ensure that the the traffic is more secure. IIRC they had the exact same issue in France and parlimentarians there have been asked not to use blackberrys as external govermnments can snoop on their communication.
