 |  iWatches ruled too insecure for UK ministers UK Ministers have been banned from wearing Apple Watches during Cabinet meetings because the shiny toys are too vulnerable to Russian hackers. Under David Cameron, several cabinet ministers wore the smart watches, including handsome hunk Michael Gove, the former Justice Secretary. However, in one of Theresa May’s saner moves, ministers have been barred from wearing them amid concerns that they could be used by hackers as listening devices. One source said: “The Russians are trying to hack everything.” Gove disrupted one Cabinet meeting when he was Chief Whip by inadvertently playing a Beyonce song while “surreptitiously checking his emails.” http://www.techeye.net/business/iwat...r-uk-ministers |
