据报道，RIM在孟买建立了一个“黑莓服务器”，以便更好地为印度**“合法访问”电子邮件和BBM信息。与RIM在沙特阿拉伯和印度尼西亚的争议问题类似，RIM发现自己被夹在了希望保持电子邮件加密和安全的公司和希望检查公民通信的**之间。这种情况让前联合首席执行官迈克•拉扎里迪斯（mikelazaridis）心痛不已，并可能在一段时间内继续对新任首席执行官托尔斯滕•海因斯（thorstenheins）如此。

根据印度联邦内政部的一份报告，RIM的新服务器已经被**检查过。另外，同一份报告还透露，**正在追踪印度5000台RIM黑莓企业服务器的位置和身份。不过，印度电信部并不认为企业电子邮件对安全机构“高度关注”。可能是这样的电子邮件不容易被访问进行监控，但**“获取服务器的[a]列表和位置”的决定很可能会让一些公司停顿。

我们联系RIM征求意见，公司重申，自2011年1月起，公司已与印度**合作，提供BBM和黑莓互联网服务电子邮件的“合法访问”——换句话说，其“消费者信息服务”可供印度**检查。RIM还强调，它将保持与2010年规定的合法准入四项原则保持一致。换句话说，RIM的现状和黑莓通信的隐私是如此——但这种状态并不像人们普遍认为的那样是隐私的。RIM的“客户声明”如下：

Customer Statement - February 21, 2012 Following recent media reports re lawful access, we would like to take this opportunity to comment on RIM's progress with the Government of India and India's wireless carriers regarding lawful access matters. These recent media reports have reiterated RIM's earlier statements that confirmed we delivered a solution in January 2011 to enable India's wireless carriers to address their lawful access requirements for our c***umer messaging services, which include BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) and BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) email. As previously stated, the solution is c***istent with RIM's published Lawful Access Principles and it is heartening to see it reported that the Government of India has confirmed and accepted that the lawful access capability available to RIM's carrier partners meets the standard required by the Government of India for all c***umer messaging services offered in the Indian marketplace. It is also encouraging to see noted the acknowledgment that BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) software is a secure VPN communication technology that resides in the custody of corporate customers, operating behind the corporate firewalls of those customers.
