Ric, 03 May 2013sorry RIMNobody cares about DOD BS, this Knox bootloader will kill development by outside sources.So long Samsung Im off to a development friendly manufacturer.The GS days were good but this wall of Knox and unlockable bootloaders has for me devastated the legacy.

      Has any one ever seen enemy of the state.. See bb is the reason how government keep tracks of all businessmens things.. N its the reason why the ones with "side" business use feature phones for the purpose ! Hell i'm not buying any Samsung communication device from now on.. I can guarantee that from now every samsung phone comes with this knox thing either shown or hidden in the system rom.. If your from other country using a lot of samsung.. Then only god knows if there's anything that "they" cant know about you ! So much for living in a virtual prison

          Didn't the government say that they were unable to track down the iMessages from iOS devices due to some unusual coding? Not sure if it is true.

            BB was the King, is King and will be King. Knox will itself be knocked out by BB.

              People always say how iPhone is secure and safe and whatnot. But why are they not approved to be a secure means of communication for their own government. The Canadians and Koreans(lower half) made it for the whole world to use and wont sue over spilled milk.

                    Why such fighting...

                    correct me if im wrong, but didnt GSMarena did a write up about BB10 being DOD approved sometime back. yes they did because they were queries as to whether or not BB10 securities would have pass.

                    Soooo Samsung Knox for the first time ever in any samsung device got a DOD approval, and u guys are moaning that the article is more in favour of samsung. Of course it is, it should be, because its the first time approval for them.. BB on the other hand, had it for ages for their current and previous models.

                    Jeez, u guys really need to grow up

                      R u guys really THAT clueless or r u like 12 and your brain has just started questioning things?

                      Whatever you do, whoever you talk to online, whatever you say to them, whatever you write in your emails, your calendar, whatever messages you send/receive in social networks, the way you are using your smartphone, the apps you have on it, the time you spend with each and every app, your conversations, EVERYTHING is known to those who are not supposed to know. And you are worried about the government?

                      So funny!

                          This mean BlackBerry & Samsung Knox are more security than iOS.

                                Maybe it's because although the article is interesting, the Blackberry isn't, so few people will read it. The market share really says it all. Samsung Knox just got a few readers to read a bit about Blackberry! :D
