What the fuck, Bill being proposed could put US users of Deepseek app in prison and face millions in fines


"A newly proposed law could see people in the US face significant fines or even jail time for using the Chinese AI app DeepSeek.

The bill, filed by Republican Senator Josh Hawley, aims to “prohibit United States persons from advancing artificial intelligence capabilities within the People’s Republic of China, and for other persons”.

The proposed law would prevent the importation of “technology or intellectual property” developed in China, with anyone violating the restrictions facing up to 20 years in prison. Individuals could also be fined up to $1 million, while for businesses it could reach up to $100m.

>>Where in the world is DeepSeek banned and why?<<

Although it does not mention DeepSeek by name, it comes just a week after the Chinese chatbot became the most popular AI app in the US, causing US tech stocks to plummet."

Just ban if from the APP stores as they want to do with TikTok, not jail Americans for downloading an app.

The bill if I hit this right is aimed at stopping people to develop it not using it

I'm prretty sure DeepSeek is the app they are concerned about

You should not be sending information or helping other countries to over take our tech industry, it is for national security.

At first I thought if you use DeepSeek you could go to jail. After reading it again I see what they mean.

It's not if you help China develop tech but if you use a Chinese developed tech / app?

The goal is to not get Chinese apps to become popular, thats how I see this.

The proposed fines and penalties are so harsh it is bound to make people think twice.

That is how a penalty should be if the law is to prevent people from breaking it.

Competition works to improve things and reduce prices, just saying.

[Big MOE]

If I download an app I assume it is legal to use, don;t you think that is a logical assumption.
