长期被禁止的FaceTime通话在阿联酋显然有效

阿联酋是石油资源丰富的首都阿布扎比和自由的金融中心迪拜的所在地,长期以来一直封锁WhatsApp和FaceTime等互联网呼叫应用程序,可能是出于安全考虑,也是为了保护其垄断的国有电信公司的收入。然而,有关部门尚未公开解释这一禁令。

长期被禁止的FaceTime通话在阿联酋显然有效

迪拜FaceTime电话似乎起作用了阿拉伯联合酋长国周日,政府明显放松了长期以来的限制苹果计划在七个酋长国的联邦。关于此事没有官方声明。的阿联酋英国电信和数字政府监管局(Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority)没有立即回应置评请求。苹果也没有回应记者的置评请求。美联社记者可以与国内外人士进行音质良好的FaceTime语音和视频通话。

阿联酋是石油资源丰富的首都阿布扎比和自由的金融中心迪拜的所在地,长期以来一直封锁WhatsApp和FaceTime等互联网呼叫应用程序,可能是出于安全考虑,也是为了保护其垄断的国有电信公司的收入。然而,有关部门尚未公开解释这一禁令。苹果iphone在阿联酋销售的电脑通常不安装FaceTime通话应用程序。

周日,Skype、facebook旗下的WhatsApp和其他类似互联网程序的通话似乎仍被屏蔽。

本月早些时候,迪拜举办了大规模的世博会,旨在吸引来自全球各地的数百万游客。此前,由于新冠肺炎疫情,世博会推迟了一年。在迪拜南部沙漠中广阔的世博会会场上,游客们可以用WhatsApp和FaceTime打电话。有关部门尚未就放宽限制发表评论。

在过去,由于互联网过滤的变化而中断之前,这些项目曾在阿联酋暂时工作过。

\"Long-banned<\/figure>
Dubai<\/a>: FaceTime<\/a> calls seemed to be working in the United Arab Emirates<\/a> on Sunday, an apparent loosening of long-standing restrictions on the Apple<\/a> program in the federation of seven sheikhdoms. There was no official announcement on the matter. The UAE<\/a>'s Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Apple also did not respond to a request for comment. Associated Press journalists could make FaceTime voice and video calls with good sound quality to people inside and outside the country.

The UAE, home to the oil-rich capital of Abu Dhabi and the freewheeling financial hub of Dubai, long has blocked internet calling apps like WhatsApp and FaceTime, presumably due to security concerns and to protect the revenues of its monopoly state-run telecommunication companies. However, authorities have not publicly explained the ban.
Apple iPhones<\/a> and computers sold in the UAE typically do not carry the FaceTime calling app.

The block appeared to remain Sunday on calls via Skype, Facebook-owned WhatsApp and other similar internet programs.
