BlackBerry (BBRY) Will Remain in Pakistan

BlackBerry (NASDAQ: BBRY) posted the following to its blog on Thursday:

After productive discussions, the Government of Pakistan has dropped its request for access to BlackBerry Enterprise Server e-mail and messaging content and rescinded its shutdown order, and BlackBerry has decided to remain in the Pakistan market.

We are grateful to the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority and the Pakistani government for accepting BlackBerry’s position that we cannot provide the content of our customers’ BES traffic, nor will we provide any so-called backdoors to our BES servers.

BlackBerry looks forward to serving the Pakistani market for years to come, including introducing new products and services, and thanks our valued customers in Pakistan for their patience and loyalty.
