Navigating Risks From Chinese Apps
An investigation report by one of Taiwan’s leading independent media outlets documents the human rights risks posed by app services created in China.

TVBS is a Taiwanese cable television operator established in September 1993. Originally founded as a joint venture between Hong Kong’s Television Broadcasts Limited (電視廣播有限公司) and Taiwan’s Era Group (年代集團), it became fully Taiwan-owned in March 2023 when consumer electronics manufacturer HTC Corporation acquired full ownership from its remaining stakeholders. The network currently operates five channels, including TVBS News, TVBS Entertainment, and the main TVBS channel.
