App Transparency Law: Know Your App's Origin and Data Security Risks.
This law mandates major application stores to clearly display the country of origin for every app, especially if it originates from a country deemed a data security risk. Citizens will gain the power to filter out apps from these risky countries and will receive warnings about potential foreign government access to their information. The goal is to enhance personal privacy and digital security choices, particularly concerning biometric and sensitive data.
