Cannot track BlackBerry, Gmail: DoT - The Times of India


well i guess this reply is the best

"Terrorists use internet for exchanging mails and other info... Shut down the Internet. Terrorists also travel on roads and on flights... Shut these transportation systems. Once these sarkari babus get the encryption keys to corporate mail systems, they will eavesdrop on confidential corporate information and sell the info for a fat sum."

Nah, i prefer this one

"The ultimate solution to deal with the problem of intercepting encrypted communication, which uses internet, is that the security agencies build capabilities of decrypting the intercepted communication," said the minutes of the meeting in which India's top security officials were present. The home ministry must now decide if India should "ban such communications or live with them", it added.

Somebody is asking for funds to do the needful.

Once that happens expect this scare story to vanish into thin air.

You do realise there is no such thing as anonymity on the web, right. Anybody can eavesdrop including yourself :)

During the meet, the telecom department also listed out three options that the intelligence agencies can adopt to address their security concerns.
And then the article ends.....what three options ?
 
Do not worry. We need them. They do not need us. What will happen to them? just nothing except somewhat minor loss in sales they may have to face.
