China TMT Law Updates (Monthly)

Our Observations: for the past two months (December 2022 - January 2023), enhancing the re-use of data and facilitating data sharing has become THE TOPIC that draws the attention of policymakers and legislators. To maximize the role of data as a new element of production, the 20 Data Measures creatively set the tone that the data property system must be laid down. The super metropolis – Shanghai also issued implementation rules on the disclosure and re-use of public data on the provincial level. Among other things, the courts' and supervisory bodies' eyes are also on AI compliance, protection of personal information, outbound data transfer, NFT compliance, online content purification, and sectorial cybersecurity standardization for the last two months.
