[Touchstone for online liberty: @netflix & @YouTube might be the next target under #NSL] 1. Soon after recent book censorship in libraries, streaming platforms might be the next target of censorship under the new law, as it mandates #police online censorship w/o court scrutiny.
5. Unfortunately, Youtube and Netflix alike still remain silent on their stances on #NSL and whether they will bend to China’s whips and censor “sensitive videos” from their platforms. We hope all service providers can put democratic values ahead of dollar signs.
2. Since the high primary turnout demonstrates #Hongkongers’ determination for democracy and captures the world’s attention, Joshua Wong urged #China to think twice and holds itself from further imperiling the city’s autonomy and democracy with the new sweeping #NSL.
[Under #nationalsecuritylaw, I was tailed by 4 unknown cars in 30 min today] 1. After #NSL became effective, stalking that targets me has intensified. Solely today I was tailed by at least 4 unknown cars/motorbikes in 30min drive. Even my Uber driver could tell we were stalked
[#Nationsecuritylaw changes business-political nexus] 1. Excellent story by @TheEconomist with insights on how #NSL imperils #HK’s business environment, impartiality and gov role, while #Beijing claims the law will not affect business confidence. economist.com/china/2020/07/…

White terror, politics of fear dispersed in Hong Kong under National Security Law. This is the first case that an individual is arrested on the doorstep under #NSL. It targets activists and quashes freedom of expression of HK people. Please be aware of it. twitter.com/wang_maya/stat…

DCer Lester Shum, who wanted to run for #Legco DC superseat, says scale of #DQ was surprising & “insane” “Only mild opposition of #NSL, which majority of #HK held this position, is not allowed. #Beijing’s clear msg - no opposition voices in #HongKong. This is end of HK polls”

6 activists had been put on a wanted list by HKPF. Notable among them is lobbyist @samuelmchu, who is also a director for HKDC. Samuel is residing in the US and is #NOT a HK citizen. The #NSL is reaching out to not only HK people but threatening the safe passage of everyone.

香港デモに関わった12人が水路で暴政から脱出し、台湾へ滞在するつもり行動が、広東省警察に逮捕されてしまった。直接で中国に監禁する恐れがある。漁船で西貢から脱出する時、果州群島周辺に見つけられた。先日国安法で訴えられた李宇軒氏、チャンネル管理者、勇武小隊など人が含めている。#NSL
