Comment RIM had a very different tune Thursday (Score 0) 182

Funny, I read this quote from a RIM public statement in an article this morning

No changes to the security architecture for BlackBerry Enterprise Server customers since, contrary to any rumors, the security architecture is the same around the world and RIM truly has no ability to provide its customers’ encryption keys. Also driving RIM’s position is the fact that strong encryption is a fundamental commercial requirement for any country to attract and maintain international business anyway and similarly strong encryption is currently used pervasively in traditional VPNs on both wired and wireless networks in order to protect corporate and government communications.

I took this as "fuck off, but I guess they got a wizard to, in some way, hand governments unencrypted data without decrypting it?

*sigh*
