Dubai police chief calls BlackBerry a spy tool
None
Worries about spying by the US and Israel spurred plans to sharply limit BlackBerry services in the United Arab Emirates, Dubai's police chief said in comments that suggest a tough line in talks with the smart phone maker.
The UAE says it will block BlackBerry e-mail, messaging and Web services October 11 unless authorities can gain access to the encrypted data traffic - a demand by other countries warning of possible bans including India. (AP)
