Do National Data Laws Carry Cyber-Risks for Large Orgs? When international corporations have to balance competing cyber laws from different countries, the result is fragmented, potentially vulnerable systems.

National data laws are creating new cyber risks for large orgs — compliance gaps, cross-border friction, and rising liability. Regulation is now part of the threat model. 🌍⚖️ #DataRegulation #EnterpriseRisk

Is regulation the answer? Some argue for intervention or alternative incentive structures to shift power from corporations to individuals. This could drive adoption of personal data ownership. ⚖️ #DataRegulation 5/6

I have to give it to the BO LOL world;

we went from data reduction in terms of data life cycles and clown infrastructure,

to data increase with no life cycle in terms of keeping LOL data active to achieve its goal.

We will need a bigger boat.

EU Fines TikTok $600 Million for Data Transfers to China Regulators said that the EU has fined TikTok 530 million euros (around $600 million). Chinese tech giant ByteDance owns TikTok, which has been found guilty of illegally sending the private data of EU users to China and lack of compliance to ensure the protection of data from potential access by Chinese authorities. According to an AFP news report, the penalty— one of the largest ever issued to date by EU’s data protection agencies— comes after a detailed inquiry into the legitimacy of TikTok’s data transfer rules.  TikTok Fine and EU TikTok’s lead regulator in Europe, Ireland’s Data Protection Commission (DPC) said that TikTok accepted during the probe about hosting European user data in China. DPC’s deputy commissioner Graham Doyle said that “TikTok failed to verify, guarantee, and demonstrate that the personal data of (European) users, remotely accessed by staff in China, was afforded a level of protection essentially equivalent to that guaranteed within the EU,” Besides this, Doyle said that TikTok’s failure to address the dangers of possible access to Europeans’s private data by Chinese authorities under China’s anti-terrorism, counter-espionage, and other regulations, which TikTok itself found different than EU’s data protection standards.  TikTok will contest the decision TikTok has declared to contest the heavy EU fine, despite the findings. TikTok Europe’s Christine Grahn stressed that the company has “never received a request” from authorities in China for European users’ data and that “TikTok” has never given EU users’ data to Chinese authorities. “We disagree with this decision and intend to appeal it in full,” Christine said.  TikTok boasts a massive 1.5 billion users worldwide. In recent years, the social media platform has been under tough pressure from Western governments due to worries about the misuse of data by Chinese actors for surveillance and propaganda aims.  TikTok to comply with EU Rules In 2023, the Ireland DPC fined TikTok 354 million euros for violating EU rules related to the processing of children’s information. The DPC’s recent judgment also revealed that TikTok violated requirements under the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) by sending user data to China. The decision includes a 530 million euro administrative penalty plus a mandate that TikTok aligns its data processing rules with EU practices within 6 months.

Apple and Google App Stores Host VPN Apps Linked to China, Face Outrage Google (GOOGL) and Apple (AAPL) are under harsh scrutiny after a recent report disclosed that their app stores host VPN applications associated with a Chinese cybersecurity firm, Qihoo 360. The U.S government has blacklisted the firm. The Financial Times reports that 5 VPNs still available to U.S users, such as VPN Proxy master and Turbo VPN, are linked to Qihoo. It was sanctioned in 2020 on the charges of alleged military ties.  Ilusion of Privacy: VPNs collecting data  In 2025 alone, three VPN apps have had over a million downloads on Google Play and  Apple’s App Store, suggesting these aren’t small-time apps, Sensor Tower reports. They are advertised as “private browsing” tools, but the VPNs provide the companies with complete user data of their online activity. This is alarming because China’s national security laws mandate that companies give user data if the government demands it.  Concerns around ownership structures The intricate web of ownership structures raises important questions; the apps are run by Singapore-based Innovative Connecting, owned by Lemon Seed, a Cayman Islands firm. Qihoo acquired Lemon Seed for $69.9 million in 2020. The company claimed to sell the business months late, but FT reports the China-based team making the applications were still under Qihoo’s umbrella for years. According to FT, a developer said, “You could say that we’re part of them, and you could say we’re not. It’s complicated.” Amid outrage, Google and Apple respond  Google said it strives to follow sanctions and remove violators when found. Apple has removed two apps- Snap VPN and Thunder VPN- after FT contacted the business, claiming it follows strict rules on VPN data-sharing. Privacy scare can damage stock valuations What Google and Apple face is more than public outage. Investors prioritise data privacy, and regulatory threat has increased, mainly with growing concerns around U.S tech firms’ links to China. If the U.S government gets involved, it can result in stricter rules, fines, and even more app removals. If this happens, shareholders won’t be happy.  According to FT, “Innovative Connecting said the content of the article was not accurate and declined to comment further. Guangzhou Lianchuang declined to comment. Qihoo and Chen Ningyi did not respond to requests for comment.”
