This is not unique to China. New Zealand has the TICSA requirement that network operators must provide intercept capabilities to security agencies, and all network operator designs must be approved by security agencies before deployment.
I would imagine other five eyes countries have or soon will have similar requirements.
- krylon 8y agoWasn't there this announcement recently that the Five Eyes was "asking" vendors to provide backdoors voluntarily, or else? And all the governments engaging in this kind of behavior are at the same time giving each other excuses, "because every one else is doing it, too". So if China does this, you can be sure other countries will point to China's example and require their own backdoors. Let's just hope all those backdoors are mutually incompatible.
