As an opinionated non-expert, I have to ask: isn’t “” This means intra-company VPN systems will no longer be authorized in China by anyone, including foreign companies. This in turn means all company email and data transfer will be required to use Chinese operated communication systems that are fully open to the China’s Cybersecurity Bureau. All data servers that make any use of Chinese based communications networks will also be required to be open to the Cybersecurity Bureau’s surveillance and monitoring system.”” really the Chinese government shooting itself in the foot? This reminds when a decade or two ago Senators Hillary Clinton and Frits Hollings tried to pass Disney written SSCA legislation that would require every Internet device like smart TVs, computers, etc. to have backdoors so companies like Disney and the government could check for copyright material. In either the Clinton bill or what the Chinese are doing there is a huge risk of third party getting access to encryption keys and other form of access. Large scale organized crime would love this as would bad behaving state actors.
