The United Arab Emirates have disclosed that the BlackBerry poses as a social and security risk to the country. In fact, the UAE mentioned that the device can easily be misused and ultimately threatening security of the country.
In fact, the UAE strongly oppose to the usage of the BlackBerry Messenger software that can be used to distribute local news. On the other hand, the Gulf might also take appropriate measures to limit the usage of certain applications on the BlackBerry.
Personally, I believe that the UAE should take pro-active steps to upgrade their existing telecommunications infrastructure, so that they can curb the abuse of using BlackBerry devices. I’m pretty sure that security risks are one of their top-most agenda, and thus technology can help them avert disasters from happening.
