digital minister, France, in a statement to AFP. As per the report, both Apple and Minister Jean-Noel Barrot emphasized that there was no risk to public health from the emitted radiation. "This is related to a specific testing protocol used by French regulators and not a safety concern," Apple stated in a statement, mentioning that the device complied with rules on emissions all around the world.
"We will issue a software update for users in France to accommodate the protocol used by French regulators," added the California based tech giant. Barrot granted the global company a two-week timeframe on Tuesday to release an update for its phone, which was approaching the end of its tenure as a flagship Apple product. He stated that the ANFR, the testing agency in charge, would promptly evaluate the update, and he would subsequently determine whether to lift the sales ban.
