Excitement at China’s Ministry of State Security: A foreign car company is suspected of using sensors in its intelligent vehicles to illegally create maps and steal state secrets. The company, working with a local provider, evades surveillance and hides its true intentions.
State protectors fear: the data collected by smart – possibly even self-driving – vehicles on China’s roads could contain information about important authorities or military bases. If they were rerouted, these state secrets would fall into the wrong hands. A foreign company was caught diverting data flow from its vehicles in China to foreign countries. Key players in the connected vehicle sector immediately denied the claim. But at the same time, the actions of the US government show that the distrust shown is mutual.
