Elon Musk may soon face tough questioning from the UK parliament about his social media platform X.

This comes at a time when authorities globally grapple with the outsized influence of social media platforms.

Earlier this month, a Brazilian Supreme Court justice ordered the suspension of X in the country, following Musk's refusal to comply with local regulations.

In the same week, Telegram's CEO, Pavel Durov, was arrested in France over how he manages his platform.

While these events took place in different countries, do they signal a shift in the balance of power between governments and tech companies? Are we witnessing a turning point in the regulation of social media platforms?

Host Zhao Ying is joined by Pascale Fung, Director of the Centre for Artificial Intelligence Research, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology; Edward Lehman, Managing Director, LEHMAN, LEE & Xu Law Firm; Einar Tangen, Senior Fellow at Taihe Institute.
