India’s decision to ban 59 chinese apps may be appear to be a small step and taken primarily to register displeasure with china over it's military actions on the LAC in eastern Ladakh but according to high level sources it reflects a larger effort to thwart the Chinese communist party's strategy to mine data for both political and military purposes.
The decision is the driver for a large plan to delay china and it's entities access to sectors in india as diverse as civilian infrastructure and emerging tech like AI, is an attempt to push back against what is now widely know as CCP's 'military civilian fusion' strategy to mine data for both political and military purpose. For instance, reports that US President Donald Tramp's recent rally registration may have been hijacked by TikTok bot rang alarm bells in india.
It may have taken the current crisis in Ladakh to spur the Indian government to action, but the security establishment has been rising red flags about chinese apps for some time now.
