DeepSeek’s practices have drawn comparisons to TikTok, but analysts argue it poses a far bigger threat by collecting more types of data.

With millions already downloading the app, experts are urging users to be cautious. Avoid sharing sensitive information or uploading personal files to the platform. The risks to your privacy may simply outweigh the benefits of this new AI tool.
