Here’s a bit of interesting news. Discussions have been held by the South Korean military about banning the iPhone from all military headquarters in the country. Currently, this is a topic under discussion by the South Korean army, navy, and air force. The concern is that sensitive information can be recorded through voice recordings.
The internal announcement added, “There has been an ongoing review regarding the potential extension of this ban to all subordinate units.” If the ban does get extended to subordinate units, almost 500,000 military personnel will be impacted by it.

The security app, developed by the Ministry of National Defense back in 2013, is considered unreliable since the smartphone features blocked by the app depend on the version of the app used on Android phones. One military official said that this will be addressed by a future software update.
