Hoping this sets a precedent for the same kind of regulation about non-Chinese corporations. Otherwise it just comes across as sinophobic grandstanding and not actually about protecting the privacy of the end-user.
The bavarian police just implemented fucking Palantir for their own use starting in august, so nah it's just sinophobia.
Like the 'impartial' IAEA and their Mosaic system

Same with Tik Tok, they don't like news they can't control and censor.

Or simply bcs they can't compete with Chinese tech. (Huawei etc)
Oh man, can you imagine that??
Glad none of this ever happened before, right???
