First Hongkonger arrested for contravening #NationalSecurityLaw Exhorts Pro-democracy Protestors to Persist and Take Hong Kong in Their Hearts to Wherever They Go

Tong Ying-kit, arrested on July 1, 2020 for flying a “Liberate Hong Kong, Revolution of our Times” flag on his motorbike, was the first one charged against the #NationalSecurityLaw.

Tong has since then been detained for more than four months.

After visiting Tong in Lai Chi Kok detention centre on November 24, 2020, legislator Shiu Ka-chun said Tong has adapted to the routine and the dietary of the center.

Shiu later wrote on Patreon that, Tong was a Ramen master who aspired to open his own Japanese restaurant. He was financing his sister’s study abroad.

Shiu also mentioned that Tong was a first-aider at anti-ELAB protests, who encountered police brutality and violent pro-Beijing supporters.

Lastly, Shiu quoted Tong’s message, reminding fellow pro-democracy supporters to “hold on and persist”.

Tong also said, “As long as Hong Kong is in your heart, wherever you go is Hong Kong.”

Walmart-exclusive router and others sold on Amazon & eBay contain hidden backdoors to control device

CyberNews researchers have discovered that Chinese-made wifi routers have secret backdoors which allow an attacker to not only remotely control the routers, but also any devices connected to it.

Backdoors are a means for an authorized or unauthorized person to gain access to a closed system – in this case, a router – by bypassing the standard security measures and take control, which is known as root access.

These Chinese-made low-cost routers, named as Jetstream, Wavlink and Ematic, usually are sold at Walmart, Amazon, and eBay.

CyberNews has also found evidence that an attacker has attempted to add the devices to a Mirai botnet, a malware which “infects devices connected to a network, turns them into remotely controlled bots as part of a botnet, and uses them in large-scale attacks.” It’s even possible that the router can steal your passwords on your devices no matter how many times you change them.
