What Does Data Registration Actually Confirm? — A Doctrinal Reading
Long before the SPC's January 2026 'data disputes' case category started squeezing data registration certificates against judicial review, Wang Qinglan had already written the foundational critique: data registration does not 'confirm rights' because there are no legal data rights to confirm. The Data 20 Articles created data property rights, not data legal rights, and Chinese property rights are not Article-conferred civil rights. Registration certificates are 'trust credentials,' not 'rights certificates.' This is the doctrinal essay overseas counsel should read before the SPC sequel.
