>More than a dozen private browsing apps on Apple and Google’s app stores have undisclosed ties to Chinese companies, leaving user data at risk of exposure to the Chinese government, according to a new report from the Tech Transparency Project. Thirteen virtual private network (VPN) apps on Apple’s App Store and 11 apps on Google’s Play Store have ties to Chinese companies, the tech watchdog group said in the report released Thursday. Chinese law requires Chinese companies to share data with the government upon request, creating privacy and security risks for American users.
