DUBAI, United Arab Emirates - The maker of BlackBerry devices says it has been told that any new restrictions imposed by authorities in the United Arab Emirates would apply to other smartphones too.
The UAE telecom regulator has said it may limit access to the highly secure Blackberry Enterprise Server, a system used by many international companies.
Individual customers and organizations with fewer than 20 users wouldn't have access.
Device maker Research in Motion Ltd. (TSX:RIM) said in an emailed statement today that it has been in direct contact with the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority.
It says it's been told any policy change would apply to the whole industry and affect "all enterprise solution providers" — a reference to phones tied to corporate email accounts.
The TRA said Saturday that "all BlackBerry services" would continue for companies and individual subscribers.
