There are two things about Snapchat that rub Chinese authorities the wrong way:

1) Ephemeral messaging. They want to keep records of what people are saying.

2) Reputation for sexting. Pornography is a major target for censorship in China.

Has it been disputed that Snap, a publicly traded company who will fall under GDPR, with thousands (?) of employees, are not recording messages?
