Looks like Jobs slipped in a Trojan Horse.
Like android is more secure?
Wait till they get google glass.
If people want to find info, nothing will stop them.
Samsung is no safer than an iPad... But hey if they think so...
Probably can’t get a signal in Moscow anyways.
I guess they are going to have to develop a Yugo Pad.
True, but no point in making it easy for them!
If Russia is so great Why don’t they create their own?..............
No, it would be a Putin Pad, AKA a P-Pad................
So , since the Snowden release regarding electronics , much of the Russian secret documentation went into typewriters,
and the they would now have to watch for the burning of typewriter ribbons to maintain their secrets .
Pretty soon they will progress to the 'Pony Express' system; another Progressive move "Foreward" !.. by moving backwards !
That won’t stop anything, especially when the US can have South Korea over a barrel.
Or about any other company.
Moscow is overflowing with Wi-Fi hotspots and cell service.
They never had the wired experience. Went directly to wireless.
FSB is all for it. Big telecom operations like Beeline are wired directly into Russian intel.
Just like here!
I have had an iPad for years and it is a lot more secure than my desktop. I had trouble with hackers, viruses, etc on the desktop but nothing like that on my iPad but I do not know what kind of protection our computer expert put in place on it. I love my iPad but my daughter thinks I need to upgrade to a newer model. I do not want to change except for one thing. I can go to different sites and it will turn off on its own. Aggravating when I am in the middle of an email or whatever. I love the kindle feature and have over 250 books on it. One of my favorite authors is William W.Johnstone who wrote westerns and The Out of the Ashes series. If you like to read, check him out. Mamab
LOL ... if they were really concerned about security, they would definitely have an iPad and not a Samsung and it’s Google system.
It’s definitely more political than anything else — a successful “American company”? No way ... as far as the Russian official position!
True. Our company does business with the Russians. My late husband worked with the cosmonauts years ago. Check out: www.aztechnology.com. My late husband had a dream years ago and started the company in our basement. Now, our daughter, her husband, son and daughter, friends are keeping it alive. My talents are not in that direction, sad to say.
Isn’t Android open source?
You got that right. It is a whole lot more secure because of the sandboxing of the apps. Furthermore, you cannot remotely install any apps, and you can only get your apps from one download place, which screen them for any illegal spying that anyone attempts to hide in them.
