Chinese authorities have summoned major tech firms, including Tencent and ByteDance, over their purchases of Nvidia’s H20 AI chips, raising concerns about information security and urging companies to rely on domestic suppliers amid escalating regulatory scrutiny.
Officials expressed concern that materials Nvidia submitted for U.S. government review could contain sensitive data, including client information.

The Trump administration recently eased export restrictions on the H20 chip, permitting its sale in China with conditions, and struck a deal with Nvidia and AMD to share revenue from advanced chip sales.
Meanwhile, China’s foreign ministry urged chip supply chain stability as U.S. officials express concerns over AI chips potentially boosting China’s military.
