Book excerpt: China's data strategy creates risks of abusive data collection on EU nationals and companies and challenges the European Union's strong emphasis on individual data rights. China's data governance framework also entails a risk of deepening data protectionism, where countries hold on to their data resources and do not share them with foreign actors. As for other 'factors of production', such as land, labour and capital, China has embarked on a process of carefully defining property rights for data; these rights depend on the type of stakeholder, the purpose of usage and a granular categorisation of data types. China's data governance framework, as discussed by policymakers and illustrated in local pilot schemes, emphasises corporate data rights and state-led data collection.
