Saudi Arabia Wants Full Access to BBM Sent & Received Messages
by Otoniel Bruno
There’s a lot of regulations in Saudi Arabia, as the government keeps close guard over its citizens and things they can and can’t do. Camera phones have been an issue there, and are still as the government has tried putting bans on those as well in the past. Now the next biggest thing is BlackBerry. Lots of Saudi citizens are getting hooked on the device just as we are. The CITC has just asked Research In Motion to allow carriers to regulate and monitor BlackBerry Messenger sent and received messages. “RIM operates in more than 170 countries around the world and respects the regulatory requirements of governments,” said a company statement. “RIM is investigating the reported matter in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and will provide an update once further information is available to share.”
