4hw.com.cn: Recently, media reported that Tencent's QQ sent a notice to international users, announcing that it would stop providing services to European users from May 20. But is it really the case? In response, Tencent QQ official statement, denied the rumors.
Yesterday, it was reported that QQ international will no longer provide services for European users after May 20. According to industry analysis, this may be related to the general data protection regulation (gdpr), which will come into force on May 25 in Europe. Gdpr aims to give European citizens more control over personal data, and violators will face a fine of up to 4% of global income. In response, the official mobile QQ statement said that the international version of QQ will not be offline in the EU region, and will continue to provide services for users in the region.
According to the data, the online time of QQ international is 2009, which is a simplified QQ without advertising, mainly for foreign users. The English, French and Japanese language interfaces, which are used by many people, remove the language barrier for foreign users to use QQ, which is not much different from the functions of QQ domestic version. Many functional modules suitable for foreign users are added to facilitate the use of foreigners.
