Apple moves the iCloud data of Chinese users directly to their country

The Asian giant is quite concise with its laws. Just as it allows cheeky copies of the competition in terms of terminal design, it gets exquisite when it comes to handling user data. This is how Apple has found itself at a crossroads when it comes to iCloud data in China.

More concretely has made the determination to transfer to China the servers that contain the data of users from precisely the Asian country. This last movement does not surprise us, since the Cupertino company lives in a constant metamorphosis to adapt to the various laws of the countries where it operates.

The agreement with CBGD comes with that sole intention, to position the work of the Cupertino company in a totally parallel way with the legislation in force in China. The users who will be affected by this transfer will be gradually notified through the communication channels they have established.s in the configuration section of your Apple IDs, the performance of the service will probably leave something to be desired for a little over a month, and that is that the beginning of the definitive transfer is dated for next February 28. An important data movement that will undoubtedly require a detail in the accomplishment of the excellent tasks.

However, these users should not feel unprotected by Apple, and it is that according to the information they have given to the media, this data will have the same security standards that they currently have on the servers arranged throughout the United States of America, the main country where Apple locates its data centers. More specifically, they assure that back doors will not be introduced that allow the Government to spy on its citizens without prior judicial request. The city of Guizhou will be the geographic location point for this data bank. Something that fortunately should not affect European or North American users, we will be attentive to the performance of iCloud.
