But to be fair to RIM, the conversation seems to have been more like:
India: Give us access to your secure messaging service
RIM: Sorry, that isn't technically possible
India: Give us access to your secure messaging service
RIM: Sorry, that isn't technically possible
India: Give us access to your secure messaging service or we'll cut you off

- gloob 16y agoFair enough, but the end result is still that the "security" of the system is rather different than what most people think it is. "Just your friends see BBM" versus "Just your friends, and RIM, and the government of India, and - oh hell, let's be honest - probably any other government that asks sufficiently impolitely as well, see BBM."
