2022 was yet another action-packed year in China's TMT sector. Despite the continuity of platform regulation and new rules targeting emerging fields such as NFT and deepfake technologies, the momentum started to fade in the second half of the year in light of a slowing-down economy. Legislators are hoping such developments may navigate the more digitalized TMT sector through a tumultuous year ahead

Summary

|
  • The regulation of data export was a major development in 2022, which requires application for security assessments with CAC before exporting data outside of China for certain scenarios
  • Chinese regulators continued its regulation of platform operators and it is likely that there will be a continuity in legislation and policies seeking more platform transparency
  • The regulations on NFTs and deepfake technologies in China became clearer in 2022 and regulators have been swift to respond to their emergence with legislation
