2. Clearly, that is not a coincidence, since a middle-aged woman had already been there before we reached the park, holding her phone videotaping us. It implies that those people were not only following us, but also conducting a wide-area surveillance operation on dissidents.
3. Six of them surrounded my friends and me and continuously provoked me with verbal abuse. That is the common tactic that they use to arouse targets' anger, smear them with everything filmed and cherrypicked, and justify their arrests.
4. Most horrifying thing is, while this time it's an unknown woman waiting for us, next time would that be #secretpolice? In the past, we DID have cases that businessmen were kidnapped by #China's agents right in the heart of #HK, such as Xiao Jianhua and bookseller Lee Bo.
5. The incident also shows how state-sponsored stalking invades ppl's personal life, not only dissidents but also their friends & families. It's dubious how they will use these data, or if it will be sent to newly established national security agency under #nationalsecuritylaw.
6. When pro-democracy figures like @tedhuichifung and @JeremyTamMH face similar furious stalking, there's a growing concern that #HK is now turning from #policestate to #secretpolicestate where people's freedoms and safety are under unprecedented assault.
