[New clampdown on #HK press freedom]
1. While Beijing claims #nationalsecuritylaw won't affect #PressFreedom in #Hongkong, #HK Immigration Dept just denied w/o reason the work visa for a @HongKongFP reporter, who has been closely following #hkprotests

When #hkpolice attempts to rewrite the history to justify its #PoliceBrutality in #Hongkong under #nationalsecuritylaw, we should insist on telling the truth. Congratulations! twitter.com/sopasia/status…

2. Under #China's #wolfwarrior diplomacy with authoritarian intimidation, it is just politically hypocritical for such a tyrannical regime to claim itself as the promoter of peace, not to mention its expansionist ambition in the South China Sea and its repression in #Hongkong.

2. Recently #hkpolice just started to rewrite the history of #PoliceBrutality, turning lies into truths. From tomorrow on, #HKgov will impose a citywide DNA collection, which is considered as a prelude to more sophisticated surveillance regime in #Hongkong.

4. It is the first time ever that even religious activities in #Hongkong were allegedly surveilled by #China’s agents two months after the new #nationalsecuritylaw has been put in place.

[From elected lawmaker to exiled freedom fighter, in four years time]
1. Four years ago today, my former colleague @nathanlawkc was elected as the youngest lawmaker in #Hongkong's history. Four years later, he is forced into exile.

When #Hongkong is turning into a #policestate, I heartily thank @PoulterWill for standing with #HKers and speaking up against injustice and oppression in the city. In fact, I am a big fan of #BlackMirror #Bandersnatch and #MazeRunner series too! twitter.com/PoulterWill/st…

Under #nationalsecuritylaw & #China’s #WolfWarriorDiplomacy, it's just a matter of time for foreign firms to consider withdrawing from #Hongkong, esp when even Australian reporters can suddenly fall victim to #Beijing’s #hostagediplomacy threat overnight. japantimes.co.jp/news/2020/09/0…

4. In fact, it is common for #China to use discretion power to return criminal suspects to #Hongkong in the past. @hkcnews_com revealed, #Beijing did send around 2-3 suspects per year to #HK over the past 5 years, even for cases that fell into China’s jurisdiction.

[When phone spy-tech are used for crackdowns & punitive diplomacy, more to go]
1. After months of advocacy efforts by #Israeli rights lawyers & #HKers, it's welcome news that #Cellebrite decided to halt selling phone-hacking services to #Hongkong & #China haaretz.com/israel-news/te…

Happy birthday to @durov, founder of @telegram, which powers leaderless movt against authoritarian rules & censorship in #Hongkong & #Belarus, and enhances our resilience against #China’s oppression & #policebrutality. #HKers owe you for what you've done.

2. Similar things have already happened last year in #Hongkong, where Apple removed our crowdsourced mapping app HKmap.live from App Store, days after #Beijing’s state mouthpiece’s criticisms.

5. Being barred from leaving #Hongkong, it is hard for me to pursue further studies overseas, let alone high uncertainty about when I will be thrown into prison again. The clock is ticking on the days that I am still free.

Great thank to Patrizia De Graziai @grazia_patrizia, @stefano_lodola & other activists from @Radicali who are calling for more local attention to #12hkyouths detained in #China by sailing 12 paper boats on the Po river in #Italy, on Day 6 of their hunger strike for #Hongkong.

3. It casts more concerns on the city’s academic freedoms and #freespeech when #CCP members are now nominated to head #Hongkong’s university directly, let alone the chilling effects of the sweeping #NationalSecurityLaw.
