Taipei, Taiwan – Chinese internet users and government censors are engaged in a cat-and-mouse game to control the narrative around the country’s anti-“zero COVID” protests.
Protests began in Urumqi, the capital of the far-western Xinjiang region, on Friday following the deaths of 10 people in an apartment block fire before spreading over the weekend to major cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing, Wuhan and Chengdu.
