FILE - Protesters wave their smartphones as they sing “Glory to Hong Kong ” during a rally for secondary school students near the Hong Kong Museum of Art in Hong Kong , Friday, Dec. 13, 2019. The distributor of a popular protest song in Hong Kong has decided to remove the music from all platforms because of a court ban in the city, the group that created the song said Friday, May 24, 2024, a week after YouTube blocked access to videos of it.
The group said the song has already been removed from iTunes and Apple Music in various regions. Most versions of the song were also unavailable on Spotify in Hong Kong on Friday. “The song itself is not banned by the injunction. We hope to have the song reinstated as soon as possible,” Dgxmusic said.
On Tuesday, Hong Kong leader John Lee said the government would keep monitoring internet platforms for any non-compliance with the court order.
