Recently, there has been a lot of sensational media coverage surrounding the changes to the Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) laws in the UAE. However, the question remains – what has actually changed? What is now considered criminal behavior? What constitutes illegal use that would warrant the level of financial penalties that we have seen in the reported media?
In this episode of MENA Talks, we speak to Kelly Tymburski, Partner in the Telecoms, Media & Technology (TMT) Group at Dentons about the changes in the legal framework and its impact on technology usage (VOIP), what it actually means for businesses and individuals here, and importantly, the practical steps they can take to ensure they are protected from these new changes.
