French President Sarkozy’s government members can’t used their Blackberry’s anymore! For this younger generation, used to email, mobile text message , it’s a handicap in their daily business. Just think about yourself! The French General Secretariat for National Defence (SGDN) assessed that the BlackBerry system is based on servers located in the US and the UK. Hence, there is a risk of tracking down the information members of the french governement are conveying and which may be confidential. I guess it could be considered a smart decision. I am glad i’m not in the french government and can continue to be spyed upon heavily. Challenging to live in the digital age.
