Karoline Kan: Chinese millennials, new media and the surveillance effect

How do Chinese young people use new media like WeChat and Baidu and how has it changed their lives and relationships? Amid censorship, blocking and the advanced Chinese surveillance state, how much can they trust it and how does surveillance change their behaviour?

This talk was hosted at Goldsmiths, University of London, as part of the #LOGANCIJ Talks Series.
