由於謬論太多,為廣大網友福祉決定講一下。一齊討論下:

发一个《赐我勇气卫自由》到YouTube会触发版权警告 -- 佢無講錯,係會。

能发出來 -- 佢又無講錯,畢竟老共都不能阻止on9

发出来不违法 -- 梗係違法啦傻仔,問題係有無人舉報你而已

发出来所有广告收入归荣光归香港 -- 錯

..下續 YouTube 開始時好多人以為整首cover放上網唔犯法 - 其實係所謂版權擁有人有無去告你而已。有好多謬論譬如話咩播10秒就無事,其實唔係,侵權就係侵權,但YouTube 裡面太多video,YT同版權所有人看漏眼唔出奇,但唔代表之後唔會追溯返權利。講YT copyright 呢條片好值得觀看:

Before we talk more about #chinaprotest, it must be noted that the Mandarin version of "Glory to Hong Kong" has been claiming plagiarized ownership over the original.

Most songwriters don't mind covers esp. when the intention is the same. But YOU NEED TO ASK FOR PERMISSION It's really that simple. You make a cover of a song that also speaks about the fight for democracy and freedom. That's great. But you claimed that you wrote the song, and that's plagiarism. You got called out on it. The right thing to do is apologize...

In case you haven't heard about this, on Jan 20th a pregnant 42 y.o was taking a walk in her neighborhood & was stopped by the police. Due to #COVID19, she asked to step away from another person who was presenting ID to the police. She was refused and then they forced searched /n ...her, and as she was trying to get her ID out of her wallet the 2 officers said that they would no longer check her ID because she was already "obstructing police officers on duty". She was handcuffed right after this remark.

Police officers also called her "fat bitch" and...

Well, for those who MARVEL at how well China is doing in keeping #COVID19 at bay, residents in the city of Tonghua, Jilin are taking to Weibo to beg for help. Rough translations:

- We weren't defeated by the virus, but now we're losing to hunger and common sickness.... /n ...young people can drink water to survive, but what about our aging parents? Patients w/high blood pressure, diabetes etc have no medication. We are begging the world: who can save us?

- I am an 8 month pregnant resident of Tonghua, I haven't eaten fruits in days...

The same #COVID19 zoning will happen to Sham Shui Po.

Meanwhile, Discovery Bay sends out folks who drink at the pier without masks, in groups, WHILE POLICE OFFICERS STAND AROUND AND DO NOTHING

This government ALWAYS pick on the poorest, most vulnerable, most needy in society I hope those who somehow still think the Hong Kong gov is "doing the right thing" or "doing their best" understand that the leadership is so incredibly rotten that they will always, and from now on, act without empathy, which is the beginning of the end to healthy governance

@inmediahk: HKT 4:40 - government announced at 4am that a #COVID19 zoning area has been set up in Jordan. Wusong Street in the east, Nanjing Street in the south, Battery Street in the west, and Kansu Street in the north.

facebook.com/inmediahknet/v… Residents living within these zoning borders must be tested for #COVID19 and only those with negative results can leave the area. HKSAR acknowledges that they are aware of "inconveniencing" residents but aim to complete the in-zone testing within the next 48 hours.

You teach law at Yale, yet you have nothing but hateful slurs for anything HK - sweeping the complex causes for the protests and dissent and unrest all under the general umbrella category as "HK independence", while encouraging CPC to just roll their tanks in - dude, like no Yes, 100% agree that xenophobic attitudes towards Chinese international students in the US is not OK. Great for you to offer help. But this Taisu? We don't hear the same kind of snarl from you on Twitter than you're showing on Weibo aren't ya?

A few things which we felt we need to reiterate about #HongKongProtests:
1. HK is not fighting for independence
2. The 5 core demands does NOT include HK independence. If anything it safeguards the 1C2S status quo
3. @joshuawongcf doesn't "lead" the protests. Netizens do.
1/n
4. When the 1st marches/dissent against the bill came, Joshua wasn't even freed yet. Most demonstrators couldn't care less what he thinks.
6. @lihkg_forum is instrumental early on, in particular the G20 ads around the world. They just got nominated in Nikkei Advertising Awards.
