Italy is the first country to ban DeepSeek. Italy’s Data Protection Authority (GPDP) stopped people from using the Chinese AI app DeepSeek with a claim to keep users’ data safe. The watchdog told Hangzhou DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence and Beijing DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence to stop accessing the data of Italian users with immediate effect.DeepSeek continues to receive hostility from nations. Taiwan’s Ministry of Digital Affairs (MODA) has said that government departments should not use the Chinese startup AI services. He says the product is from China, which is a security concern. Is western influence trying to contain China impractical ?
