In September 2026, Omarchy announced that they were partnering with the Chinese company Alibaba, to produce and release a version of Omarchy for Chinese market. This will be a special release, separate from the international version which is available to everyone else.<ref>https://omarchy.org/news/2026/09/alibaba-cloud-joins-as-founding-corporate-patron/</ref><ref>https://www.phoronix.com/news/Omarchy-Alibaba-3M</ref> In order to be approved for use in China, it will need to include the spyware applications which are mandated by the [[Chinese Communist Party]]. While Omarchy presents this as an opportunity for Chinese citizens to benefit from, and in turn help the project, some in western countries are concerned by Omarchy's apparent willingness to embed state-mandated spyware in any version of their software.<ref>https://rumble.com/v7hcbgg-omarchy-goes-to-china.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a</ref>
