Lenovo fima one sane confidentiality BlackBerry to ... - MovilZona.es

poor health, both economically, and market, which is experiencing BlackBerry is no news to anyone. Half a dozen companies have fallen into the rumors about a possible purchase of the Canadian company. The last, and winning whole is to China’s Lenovo, but behind this purchase there are possible hidden political interests.

So in the last days Lenovo has signed a confidentiality agreement with BlackBerry in what amounts to one of the previous steps when two companies enter into negotiation for purchasing processes, absorption or shareholder very nature. This agreement does not mean that the purchase by the Chinese to go give effect, is just a preliminary step , and to the strong rumors, seems definitive evidence that something important is about to happen.

However, despite all these signs pointing to Lenovo as new “owners” of BlackBerry , there is a strong political component that can derail the whole operation. Like it or not, the way to bring the policy in the Asian giant to convince the West end, therefore, all business moves, and more in an area as sensitive as telecommunications, you look with special care.

China

That raises no great sympathy between large international companies is not new. In fact, every time one of their large technology companies, ZTE or Huawei , make some movement of assimilation, purchase, or agreements, jump all alarms about possible leaks of information or data of citizens or government of the country they occupy.

timing could not be different. In addition, there is also a recent case of problems with a Canadian company. Is Nortel Networks , where Lenovo have previously entered. After a series of actions that nobody understood the Canadian company Nortel went bankrupt and many concluded that it had been sought action by the Chinese.

All this conspiracy goes a step further, and of course it features the U.S., since more than 1 million federal employees use a BlackBerry as a working mobile terminal, and taking into account that the Government of Canada can veto the purchase of a company of their country by a foreign, Lenovo movement only understood by the fact of wanting to take control, even if your data and information, and then bring down BlackBerry.
