DeepSeek reports campaign of ‘large-scale malicious attacks’ after becoming most downloaded app
Several companies have banned the use of the Chinese AI software due to security and data protection concerns. Donald Trump has called its emergence a ‘wake-up call for our industries’
“Due to large-scale malicious attacks on DeepSeek’s services, registration may be busy.” With this message, the Chinese artificial intelligence platform that has set off alarm bells among U.S. technology companies warns new users of difficulties in incorporating them into its mobile application or the access page on the internet. Since yesterday, when DeepSeek became the application with the highest number of downloads, it has suffered continuous failures in its registration links. Experts attribute this to various strategies but have not yet identified their origin. Several companies have banned DeepSeek downloads for security reasons.
