一款名为ZyMix的超级应用因使用被美国国防部列入军事黑名单的中国公司服务器而引发安全担忧。腾讯控股在2026年1月被美国国防部加入第1260H名单，理由是其与中国人民解放军存在间接关联1。ZyMix与腾讯的Frankfurt子公司签订合同存储用户数据和消息1。
这款面向英国学生的应用在隐私政策被曝光后，删除了政策中关于腾讯的提及，改而宣称数据存储位置在英国和欧盟1。然而ZyMix拒绝透露其确切的数据存储地点1，引起英国安全顾问和学术界对其数据保护措施的质疑。尽管ZyMix声称该应用是"英国本土开发"，但其招聘信息显示产品、研发、设计和测试团队位于大中华地区1。
ZyMix向校园品牌大使提供每月200至400英镑的报酬以推广该应用1。英国情报部门曾就类似安全风险发出警告——MI5曾向英国大学发出警告，要求其切断与中国通用技术研究院的联系1。
A mobile application called ZyMix, marketed toward UK students, relies on server infrastructure controlled by Tencent Holdings, a Chinese company added to the US Department of Defense's military enterprise blacklist in January 2026 1. Tencent was designated after allegations of indirect links to China's People's Liberation Army 1. ZyMix has contracted with a Frankfurt-based subsidiary of Tencent to store user data and messages 1, raising concerns among British security advisors and academics about the adequacy of data protection measures.
Following the public disclosure of its privacy policy, ZyMix removed all references to Tencent from its documentation and subsequently claimed that user data is stored exclusively in the UK and European Union 1. However, the company has declined to provide specific details about where data is actually stored 1. Meanwhile, recruitment materials for ZyMix indicate that product development, research and development, design, and testing teams are based in Greater China, contradicting the platform's assertion that it is "UK-developed" 1. The application has also recruited campus brand ambassadors, offering them monthly compensation ranging from 200 to 400 British pounds 1.
The situation mirrors earlier security concerns flagged by MI5, which previously warned UK universities to sever ties with the China General Technology Research Institute 1.
