The Garante's blocking order and ongoing investigation indicate regulatory action to address potential legal violations. However, there is no report of actual harm or breach having occurred yet, only the potential for such harm if data processing continues without compliance. The event is primarily about the regulatory response and investigation, fitting the definition of Complementary Information rather than an AI Incident or AI Hazard.

DeepSeek is an AI system as it is described as an AI model providing responses and personalized outputs based on user data. The Garante's intervention is due to violations of GDPR, which is a breach of legal obligations protecting fundamental rights, specifically privacy rights. The blocking of data processing is a direct response to these violations, indicating realized harm to users' data protection rights. The censorship and biased responses also imply harm to informational rights and freedom of expression. Therefore, this event qualifies as an AI Incident because the AI system's use has directly led to violations of rights and harms related to privacy and information access.
