Security experts warn China’s expanding control over undersea cables, data centres, and apps like TikTok poses serious risks to Western democracy and security. Salih Hudayar, Foreign Minister of the East Turkestan government-in-exile, calls it an “information war” where Beijing could access sensitive data and disrupt critical systems, Firstpost reported.
He also highlights China’s use of advanced Western tech in AI centres amid repression in East Turkestan. Hudayar urges the West to build secure infrastructure and block risky Chinese devices, saying the digital battle has already begun—and it’s time to fight back.
