No DeepSeek on Government Devices Act
HR 1121, the "No DeepSeek on Government Devices Act," prohibits U.S. federal executive agencies from using the DeepSeek application (or any successor by High Flyer) on government information technology devices. It requires the Office of Management and Budget to develop removal standards within 60 days, directing agencies to remove the application while complying with existing security rules. Exceptions are permitted for national security, law enforcement, and security research activities, but agencies must document risk mitigation plans for any authorized use under these exceptions. The bill directly affects all executive agencies covered under federal information technology policies.
