British ministers barred from wearing Apple Watches during Cabinet meetings

British ministers have been barred from wearing Apple Watches during Cabinet meetings over concerns that they could be hacked by Russian spies, according to The Telegraph.

Under David Cameron, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, several cabinet ministers wore the smart watches, including Michael Gove, the former Justice Secretary. However, under Theresa May (pictured), current Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and the Leader of the Conservative Party, ministers have been barred from wearing them amid concerns that they could be used by hackers as listening devices.
