China launched a global data security initiative on Tuesday, outlining principles that should be followed in areas from personal information to espionage.
China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi launched a global data security initiative on Tuesday, and outlined the principles that should be followed in areas from personal information to espionage.
There are eight key principles in the initiative, ranging from how data should be stored to how it should be used. The initiative, announced by Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Beijing, comes as the U.S. continues to put pressure on China's largest technology companies and convince countries around the world to block them.
Wang also said the initiative looks to put an end to activities that "infringe upon personal information" and oppose using technology to conduct mass surveillance against other states.
