Tesla sets up data center in China amid spying concerns
CNN
Tesla says it has set up a new facility in China to store local user data as the company faces heightened scrutiny over whether its cars there could ever be used for spying.
The electric automaker said Tuesday that it had designated a new data center in mainland China, and would plan to "add more" in the country in the future. It follows a recent pledge to keep any data it collects from locally sold cars within China's borders. "Car data security is very important," the automaker said in a post on Weibo, China's Twitter-like platform. "Tesla will make every effort to ... ensure data security."More Related News
