The US Senate has just passed unanimously the #HongKong Human Rights & Democracy Act. To the protestors in Hong Kong: You did this. Your courage has moved the Senate. It has moved the Congress. It will move the world. #StandWithHongKong
"For I have a single definition of success: you look in the mirror every evening, and wonder if you disappoint the person you were at 18, right before the age when people start getting corrupted by life. Let him or her be the only judge; not your reputation" - @nntaleb
Apple has removed an app used by Hong Kong protesters to track police movements after the Chinese Communist Party’s official newspaper called the app “poisonous”.
Big Tech once again caving to one of the biggest human rights abusers on the planet.
