Enterprise IP Crisis

  • Samsung leaked semiconductor code via ChatGPT (3 incidents in 3 weeks)
  • Apple, Amazon, JP Morgan banned ChatGPT internally
  • 92% of Fortune 500 use ChatGPT — massive uncontrolled exposure

Regulatory Enforcement Active

  • TikTok: €530M fine for EU-China data transfers (May 2025)
  • OpenAI: €15M fine + forced EU data residency (Feb 2025)
  • EU AI Act enforcement began August 2025 — penalties are real

Multi-Jurisdiction Complexity

  • EU: GDPR + EU AI Act (€35M or 7% penalties)
  • China: PIPL + CAC data localization requirements
  • USA: ICTS Rule (March 2025) bans Chinese/Russian automotive software
