Graphic: BriefTea
Nscale, a British AI data firm, removed mentions of its biggest customer, China's Bytedance, from US regulatory filings. The removal happened before Nscale's planned $35bn public listing on Wall Street, where US officials scrutinise Chinese tech ties. Earlier confidential drafts had confirmed Bytedance was Nscale's largest customer in 2025, renting Nvidia AI chips.
