The Development and Game of US Digital Diplomacy Under Geopolitics

As the evolution of public diplomacy, digital diplomacy uses Internet and new communication technologies to help achieve diplomatic goals. As early as 2006, the United States began to actively develop cyber diplomacy in order to maintain and develop the broad interests of the United States in cyberspace. However, in recent years, the US digital diplomacy has encountered internal and external communication barriers, especially after the 2008 financial crisis, the US government no longer has the strength to support its diplomatic actions. At the same time, a small number of large technology companies are beginning to compete for geopolitical influence using their own financial and technological advantages as well, including Tesla President Musk, whose expansion in Starlink technology in the Ukraine crisis is an act of bringing his own funds technology to participate in U.S. digital diplomacy.
