U.S. Backs RIM in Data Encryption Dispute
09 Aug 2010
The United States is coming to the aid of Canadian mobile manufacturer Research In Motion, in its on going disputes with several governments over access to encrypted date that BlackBerry users send and receive. Government hotshot and general all around nuisance Hillary Clinton is championing RIM’s cause. “We are taking time to consult and analyze the full range of interests and issues at stake, because we know that there is a legitimate security concern, but there's also a legitimate right of free use and access," Clinton said. "So I think we will be pursuing both technical and expert discussions as we go." It should be noted that the governments that have demanded access to data being used by BlackBerry subscribers are all from countries where, riding camels as a form of transportation and anally punishing your wife because she neglected to cover her face, are seen as acceptable practices. It is believed that countries opposed to RIM’s data encryption are trying to monitor civil unrest and democratic ideology.
