Abstract: In the era of Internet new media, information content has undergone a huge transformation from professional production to user production or mixed production and, as a result, content ubiquity and global integration are becoming a prominent feature of information dissemination. Internet information content has an impact on modern state governance, triggering a paradigm innovation in freedom of expression theory and content governance practice. At present, China has established a primary normative system of Internet information content governance with Chinese characteristics, but this system still has some problems in terms of concept, content, measures, structures, and subjects of governance. To correctly guide and supervise Internet information content, China must, on the precondition of correctly understanding the laws of Internet information content production and dissemination, base itself on practical issues, broaden its global vision, strike a balance between political security, social stability, democratic participation, and technological innovation, and ensure national security, public interests and civil rights, so as to provide a set of Chinese solutions for Internet information content governance that "enable technology to unite the people".
