A White House memo alleges that Alibaba provided technological support to the Chinese military, enabling operations against U.S. targets, as reported by the Financial Times. The memo claims Alibaba offered the PLA access to customer data and AI services, raising concerns about cybersecurity risks to American infrastructure. U.S. lawmakers have called for action against Alibaba, reflecting ongoing fears regarding China’s military-civil fusion strategy and its potential to compromise U.S. security. In response, Alibaba has categorically denied these allegations, framing them as attempts to malign the company, while Beijing condemned the accusations as distortions of fact. This development underscores the increasing scrutiny of Chinese technology firms amid heightened tensions between the U.S. and China.
