China Denies Data Access Claims After TikTok’s $600M EU Fine

China rejected allegations that it mandates companies share data, responding to a $600 million (530 million euros) fine imposed on TikTok by the European Union for illegally transferring user data to China. The second-largest EU fine, announced Friday, has intensified scrutiny on the Chinese-owned social media platform, which plans to appeal.

The EU fined TikTok for moving European user data to China without ensuring protection from Chinese government access, following an investigation by Ireland’s Data Protection Commission, TikTok’s European regulator, due to its Dublin headquarters. The fine, reported by Reuters, marks a significant escalation in concerns over TikTok’s data practices and potential misinformation risks.

TikTok, a ByteDance subsidiary, vowed to challenge the decision, while China’s foreign ministry denied requiring illegal data collection and urged the EU and Ireland to foster a “fair, non-discriminatory” business environment.

TikTok faces growing national security concerns worldwide, with fears that Chinese authorities could access user data. Countries like Pakistan, Nepal, and France’s New Caledonia territory have imposed temporary bans. In the US, a 2024 law mandates ByteDance to divest TikTok or face a nationwide ban, increasing pressure on the platform following the EU’s action.

China’s denial of data access mandates comes as TikTok grapples with a $600 million EU fine for data transfer violations. As the platform appeals and faces global bans, the case underscores escalating tensions over data privacy and tech regulation. TikTok’s next moves will shape its future in the international market.
