Thanks for the clarifications. It's not lost on me that the devices
described could be used to shut down phones at the whim of the CA.

So who decides what the whitelist mentioned has? And just how quickly can
that list be updated? Where exactly are these devices installed?

I worry about these devices being used to turn off mobile services in parts
of the country...

Hello Listers.

Please see the statement from CA regarding the Device Management System
that is under deployment. We hope listers shall objectively engage and seek
to understand what the regulator is doing in the interest of the public.
Media reports on this were misleading, but be rest assured we shall
continue to engage all stakeholders so that they can be in full picture.

Regards,

Rachel
