How does China govern its digital space, and what is their defintion of internet sovereignty? In this episode, Dr. Jia Lianrui, Lecturer in Digital Media and Society at the University of Sheffield, discusses China’s platform ecosystem, as well as Eastern and Western perspectives on technology.  The conversation unpacks the tensions between commercialisation, regulation, and freedom of expression, and asks what role China’s model may play in shaping the future of the global internet.
