AI Stock Intel: Chinese AI App DeepSeek Banned in South Korea Over Data Privacy Fears

**South Korean authorities have removed Chinese AI chatbot DeepSeek** from app stores pending a review of its data collection practices. The decision follows concerns over user data being stored on servers in China, raising privacy and security risks.

South Korea’s Personal Information Protection Commission said DeepSeek failed to comply with local privacy laws. The app was removed from app stores on February 15, though users who already downloaded it can still access it.  ([View Details on PwnHub](https://www.reddit.com/r/pwnhub/comments/1irgoxy/chinese_ai_app_deepseek_banned_in_south_korea/))
