Hong Kong protest anthem faces online ban and removal from major music platforms.

The Hong Kong government has sought an injunction to ban the pro-democracy protest anthem "Glory to Hong Kong" outright, resulting in various versions of the song being unavailable on several platforms. The song was the unofficial anthem of Hong Kong's 2019 pro-democracy street protests and was banned in schools in 2020 after China imposed a national security law on the financial hub cracking down on dissent. The government seeks to ban performing and disseminating the song, including online, its melody and lyrics, and any adaptations. Critics say the move erodes freedom of speech.
