[Financial censorship amid unfree speech]

1. More than just crackdowns on dissidents, #nationalsecuritylaw has repercussions on this global financial city, as global banks now screen clients’ accounts, public speeches, interviews and online posts. reut.rs/2OCACAf
2. Recently HSBC questioned me abt my royalty income from the sales of my new book “Unfree Speech”. In the new era that #HK’s speech becomes unfree, nothing is more ironic when book sales could be politically sensitive in this city once known to free and open on #China’s soil. Image
3. Absolutely unimaginable how far this financial censorship will go, esp under vaguely defined law, #Beijng’s tightening red lines and its thriving wolf-warrior diplomatic ambitions. One thing is sure - Beijing clamps down on dissidents in #China by controlling their accounts. Image
