European Privacy Group Sues TikTok and AliExpress for Illicit Data Transfers to China

European privacy group noyb filed complaints against several companies, including TikTok and AliExpress, for transferring user data to China without proper authorization. The group argues that data transfers to China violate EU data protection regulations due to the Chinese government’s potential access and lack of independent data protection. The complaints coincide with FTC actions against General Motors and GoDaddy for data privacy violations.
