An appeals court has granted the Hong Kong government’s request to ban the protest song, overturning an earlier ruling.
An appeals court on Wednesday granted the Hong Kong government's request to ban a popular protest song, overturning an earlier ruling and deepening concerns over the erosion of freedoms in the once-freewheeling global financial hub. “Glory to Hong Kong” was often sung by demonstrators during huge anti-government protests in 2019.
He said he hoped such bans would not become “the new normal' and establish a precedent. 'This will get people really worried about how free Hong Kong’s internet will be like tomorrow,' he said. Beijing imposed a sweeping national security law in 2020 to quell the months-long unrest. That law was used to arrest many of the city’s leading pro-democracy activists.
