For the first time in 26 years, the Foreign Correspondents’ Club in Hong Kong suspended its Human Rights Press Awards, in the latest indication of the city’s tense political environment prompting self-censorship among institutions. https://t.co/64tayvviBT

Taking a moment to think about how utterly crazy it is that in 2022 a company with a significant dataset of private and public communications, that has municipalities, companies and governments on the platform, can switch ownership with pretty much zero scrutiny

PSA if you’re going to tweet something snarky about CNN+, hundreds of journalists and technicians who did nothing but work their tails off just had the rug pulled out from under them. So be kind.

I just sent my last of some 650 editions of @theatlantic Daily! ❤️

Every time I facetime with my grandma now, I take a screenshot. Covid is not over yet.

[Jody Mak @JodyMak]

I haven't had to worry about my family in Hong Kong during the pandemic until recently. It's v strange to witness/celebrate mask mandates being lifted in NYC and the U.S. generally, while also monitoring cases abroad.

[John Burn-Murdoch @jburnmurdoch]

NEW: I’m not sure people appreciate quite how bad the Covid situation is in Hong Kong, nor what might be around the corner.

First, an astonishing chart.

After keeping Covid at bay for two years, Omicron has hit HK and New Zealand, but the outcomes could not be more different.

[Jody Mak @JodyMak]

Hong Kong now has the highest death rate in the world. Check this view out in @OurWorldInData, compared to the US:

If you've been cheering on @PayGapApp going after companies and their empty IWD platitudes, you have @franwritescopy and @alifensome to thank. I chatted to Fran about the bot for @VICEUK https://t.co/Y93ohExdZn

Seeing Hong Kong in this situation over two years after the pandemic began absolutely breaks my heart https://t.co/Je7IIHpQOj

"The Ukrainian government reported a cyberattack on January 14, targeting the websites of the country’s foreign ministry, the cabinet of ministers, and defense councils. A month later, Ukrainian cybersecurity officials also announced a distributed denial-of-service, or DDoS.."

[Tori Elliott @telliotter]

Ukraine is in the midst of an unprecedented invasion, but the cyberattacks from Russia began weeks earlier. For @restofworld, a quick rundown on the dangers of cyber attacks, but also the power that even the threat of one has to sow fear: https://t.co/uTvRzCqpv0

Could not be more proud of the incredible journalism @TheAtlantic is publishing on Ukraine.
