Hong Kong Protest anthem "Glory to Hong Kong" dominated all top 10 spots of iTunes as HK Gov't seeked to ban the song on Tuesday.

The Department of Justice seeks to ban the song from broadcasting, performing, printing, publishing, displaying or reproducing. If it is banned, it will be the 1st song that is banned in Hong Kong. However, many questions how it will be executed. All variation of "Glory to Hong Kong" are uploaded oversea, where HKGov has no jurisdiction. The song will only be banned unless internet providers, such as Google, compromised.

However, many worried that this may be the 1st step for Hong Kong to build a firewall similar to the one mainland China has. This would significantly deteriorate freedom which is already much worsen since 2019.

When it comes to destroying the rule of law in HK, the judges play a huge part as well.

Hong Kong's court proceedings following the 2019 protests have raised concerns of injustice. High conviction rates and reliance on attire as evidence have sparked debates on fairness. Critics argue peaceful protesters may be targeted, undermining freedom of expression.

In November 2019, conflicts erupted at Polytechnic University and protesters gathered in Yau Ma Tei, Hong Kong. "The Court Line" reported that 333 people were charged with participating in riots. As of Nov 2023, 72% of cases were concluded, with a 96% conviction rate. In Yau Ma Tei, 164 individuals were convicted, with 5 directly involved in violence. Over 70% were convicted for wearing black attire or protective gear. Judges noted the severity of the protests, sentencing nearly half to 5 years or more in prison. Two defendants with extendable batons and telescopes received the highest sentences. #HongKong #PolyUSeige #HkProtest #HkDMovement
