U.A.E to ban blackberry services

Posted by Najib

The United Arab Emirates, citing security concerns, said Sunday that it would suspend BlackBerry mobile services like e-mail and text messaging beginning in October, the latest high-stakes clash between governments and communications providers over the flow of digital information.

And it looks like other countries will follow.

The decision could have significant implications for BlackBerry use in the Persian Gulf region, where Saudi Arabia has been closely studying the issue and may follow suit. Other countries, including Kuwait and Bahrain, have also raised concerns.

Here’s also an ad that was banned in the states but not because it includes a blackberry.



Chaotic Hungarian F1 GP

Not sure how many readers like Formula1, but i am a big fan myself and today’s race was really a spectacular one and entertaining as well. I don’t recall ever seeing two Formula1 cars hit each other in the pit lane that way. Thank God no one got hurt because it could have been a disastrous accident had it hit the mechanics.

The weirdest of penalties was also given today, i didn’t know it even existed.
Sebastian Vettel the German driver for Red Bull and a favourite to win the championship was given 10 seconds drive-through penalty for letting a 10 car distance between him and the race leader while the safety car was on.
