00:00Civil servants can no longer use Waze.
00:05It's like Anwar encouraged the public just the day before.
00:07Switch to the locally developed navigation application UZU
00:11The reason is that Waze has strict data security policies.
00:14Less than a day later, news broke that the government would take immediate action.
00:17The message prohibiting civil servants from using Waze
00:19I've only used Waze for over ten years.
00:22Only now do I realize it's unsafe.
00:24Could it all be because of these three words?
00:27Israel
00:34Let's clarify this first.
00:36The reasons given by the government are not just political stance.
00:39Rather, it is based on national security and the protection of personal data.
00:42Anwar pointed out that Waze is governed by Israeli law.
00:45Therefore, the government is concerned about whether this will affect the public.
00:48Personal data security and location information pose security risks.
00:52After all, navigation apps do require us to provide our location.
00:56What if this data is misused?
00:58This could lead to the leakage of confidential information, or even in certain circumstances.
01:02Causes security issues
01:03As for most people
01:05The relatively unfamiliar "Supervisor" is a guide game that was introduced last November.
01:09Flight application
01:10Launched jointly by the Highway Authority and a private company
01:13Provides real-time traffic and road condition information
01:16Users can also find other facilities such as rest stops, gas stations, and restaurants.
01:21As a reference for itinerary planning
01:23Following the Prime Minister's appeal, many netizens enthusiastically downloaded and shared the video.
01:27User experience
01:28Someone posted a screenshot of a navigation page that only has a straight line.
01:32Frankly speaking, there is still room for improvement.
01:34Some people also harshly criticized the design as terrible.
01:37Furthermore, he stated that he used Google Maps' basic data and satellite connectivity services.
01:41However, some people have compared it to other navigation apps.
01:44Display the arrival time of the supervisor.
01:46It sped up Google Maps by almost an hour.
01:48Judging from the response
01:50Some netizens agree
01:51This is a good start.
01:53The government has raised security concerns regarding the web.
01:56But what specific technical vulnerabilities are involved?
01:58What data might be used and how?
02:00And what are the risk assessment criteria?
02:03More specific explanation is needed.
02:05The reason why web security vulnerabilities have suddenly come to the forefront is...
02:08Because of the Internet Consumer Association in early October
02:11I reviewed the terms of use for the relevant navigation system updates.
02:14It was discovered that although Google acquired Web in 2013...
02:18However, the terms specify that the company responsible for operation is Web Mobile.
02:22Registered in Israel
02:24Headquartered in Tel Aviv
02:26And operates in accordance with Israeli law
02:28Of course, it is subject to Israeli law.
02:30This does not mean that it will hand over user data to the Israeli government.
02:34Switching to a domestically developed application doesn't necessarily guarantee complete security.
02:39In fact, some countries in the world have previously cited national security concerns.
02:42Restricting foreign technology from processing sensitive data
02:45For example, South Korea once restricted the export of high-precision map data overseas.
02:49To avoid being located in military facilities and sensitive areas.
02:53China has also reportedly restricted Tesla in the past.
02:57Entering certain military or government-related fields
02:59Concerns that in-vehicle cameras may collect sensitive information
03:03So let's go back to the West ban.
03:05Will it eventually expand further?
03:07For ordinary people
03:09Is a navigation app easy to use?
03:11Can it accurately avoid traffic jams?
03:13That's the most realistic consideration.
03:15If the local supervisory navigation application
03:18Is patriotism or bans enough to replace West?
03:22What navigation apps do you usually use?
03:24Will Web be uninstalled?
