Blackberry is spy tool, says Dubai police chief
- United Arab Emirates: Saturday, September 04 - 2010 at 09:46
Dubai's police chief, Lt. Gen. Dahi Khalfan Tamim, has said that fears of espionage and information sharing by Israel — as well as the United States and Britain — helped prompt the possible limits on the popular BlackBerry. Tamim told a conference on information technology that the proposed BlackBerry curbs are also "meant to control false rumors and defamation of public figures due to the absence of surveillance," according to a story posted Friday on the website of the UAE newspaper Al-Khaleej. Tamim did not elaborate on the spying accusations in the article.
