Some elements of the law are part of the GDPR, but I would say that the Chinese law has an much more broad and ambitious scope. GDPR regulates that a human is not subject to an automatic decision that has a (negative) legal effect on him or her. The Chinese law additionally prohibits elements that built addiction, prevent bots from registering accounts, not generate synthetic false information, etc.

I would assume that enforcing such a law is extremely hard. The cynical part of me assumes that the unclear regulations will be used to silence companies and individuals that do not match the governments ideology. But I still think that many countries would be well adviced to include something similar in their legislation.
