Malaysia has barred civil servants from using the Waze navigation app, citing data security concerns tied to the app's Israeli links, according to AP. The government announced the step on Wednesday.
A statement from the office of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said the decision took into account that Waze Mobile Limited, which is incorporated in Israel, acts as a data controller for the service.
