South Korean Military Could Soon Ban iPhones. Here's Why | Vantage With Palki Sharma
South Korea’s military is contemplating a ban on iPhones within military buildings due to mounting concerns about potential leaks of sensitive information through voice recordings. At the centre of this, is a military app that restricts the functions of a phone like camera and voice recordings. Apple's strict privacy controls prevent the app from restricting the iPhone's functions which has raised questions of a ban. Interestingly, while iPhones could be explicitly banned, Android-based devices manufactured by Samsung, are exempt from the ban. Also, restrictions on smart devices in secure facilities are standard practice, implementing a total ban is less common. Can Apple prevent this ban? Palki Sharma tells you.
