Tech Transparency Project research found numerous free VPN apps in Apple’s App Store and Google Play are owned by Chinese companies—including several tied to Qihoo 360—raising concerns that Chinese laws could compel access to users’ data. The report lists specific VPN apps still available as of May 8 and notes that app store policies provide limited transparency about developer provenance and data practices, potentially exposing users to privacy and national-security risks.
