    Deepseek Can’t Be Downloaded From App Shops in South Korea

    On Saturday, South Korean officials made it so that the Chinese AI Lab DeepSeek app could not be downloaded from app stores in the country until the Chinese company’s data handling practices were looked into.

    The Korean Privacy Protection Commission (PIPC) said that the Chinese app could be downloaded once it made the necessary changes to follow Korean privacy rules.

    The limits won’t change how people in the country use the current app or web service. The data protection authority did say, though, that present DeepSeek users should “strongly advise” not to enter any personal information until the final decision is made.

    After DeepSeek launched in South Korea at the end of January, the PIPC said it contacted the Chinese AI lab to find out how it gets and uses personal data. During its review, the PIPC found problems with DeepSeek’s third-party service and privacy policies.

    The PICC told Parhlo World that its research showed DeepSeek sent information about South Korean users to ByteDance, which is the parent company of TikTok.

    📢🚨 Big news! South Korea has officially blocked downloads of DeepSeek from local app stores. This decision raises questions about digital access and content regulation in the country. Stay informed and share your thoughts! #DeepSeek #DigitalAccessibili… https://t.co/nCV3WRsp53

    DeepSeek did not answer right away when asked for feedback.

    The agency said DeepSeek just hired a local representative in South Korea and admitted that when it first started its service, it didn’t know much about the country’s privacy rules. The Chinese business also said last Friday that it would work closely with the Korean government.

    South Korea’s Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy, the police, and a state-run company called Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power briefly blocked access to the Chinese AI startup on official devices earlier this month because they were worried about security.

    South Korea isn’t the only country being careful with DeepSeek because it comes from China. Australia has made it illegal to use DeepSeek on government computers because of safety worries. Italy’s data protection agency, Garante, has told DeepSeek to block its chatbot in the country. In Taiwan, the government has told DeepSeek AI that it can’t be used by any government offices.

    Liang Feng started DeepSeek in 2023 in the city of Hangzhou. It came out with DeepSeek R1, a free, open-source reasoning AI model that competes with OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
