ktv303 Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Politicians in the UK have reportedly been banned from wearing the Apple Watch to cabinet meetings over fears the device could be hacked. According to a report from The Telegraph, the government is worried that the Apple Watch's microphone could be used to listen in on high-level policy discussions, especially by Russian spies. It's a justified paranoia, especially after the announcement last week from the US government that it is officially blaming Russia for the hack on the Democratic National Committee. A source in the UK told The Telegraph: "The Russians are trying to hack everything." http://www.theverge.com/2016/10/10/13224968/apple-watch-banned-uk-australia-hacking ffs imagine being the guy who has to listen to bojo all day!!!!
