The Soviet InterNyet
https://aeon.co/essays/how-the-soviets-invented-the-internet-and-why-it-didnt-work
Soviet automation, data & automation policy/failures, area lesson in how not to do things - here in the west, in a similar time frame, it was laundered through, and in collaboration with, private industry/capital and individuals. Inria and Fraunhofer/Max Plack being good European examples of what was happening in the US*. The UK has always been far more university-centric/laissez faire/less dynamic.
* The German policy and British attitudes have 18th/19th century roots and the US did it better. I'm woefully ignorant about Chinese policies. I do know it's not government or private that wins, it's both, a least in Europe/the US, although there are arguments about the balance.
