Internet freedom is largely restricted in China, with heavy censorship. The Great Firewall prevents users from accessing popular sites outside of China, including Google, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Hence, Chinese social media users operate almost exclusively on Chinese websites such as Weibo. Having been an avid user of Weibo since more than two years ago, I thought I would share my personal experience with readers outside of China on what the internet is like on the other side of the Great Firewall, focusing specifically on Sina Weibo.
