Zoom Censors Chinese Activists

Zoom Censors Chinese Activists

(TargetLiberty.org) – Video conferencing company Zoom admitted Wednesday that it closed the account of a group of Chinese pro-democracy activists. They did so to comply with Chinese law — even though the group is based in the US.

Humanitarian China is based in Hayward, CA with a mission statement to promote human rights, free speech and civil society in China. On May 31, the group held an online event to commemorate the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre when thousands of pro-democracy protesters were murdered by the Chinese regime. Around 250 people logged in to take part.

Unfortunately, in China, it’s a crime to even talk about the massacre. By June 7, Humanitarian China’s paid Zoom account had been replaced by a splash screen saying the account has been closed. When approached by independent media, Zoom confirmed that the account had been canceled “…to comply with local law” – Chinese law.

It has since been reactivated.

Target Liberty
Our American liberties are under assault. The corrupt minority is diverting our hard-earned tax dollars to fund their agendas, funneling them to the industrial military complex and their financiers in an attempt to disarm Americans and completely obliterate the Constitution. If they win, the end result will be the implementation of a global totalitarian regime.

Target Liberty aims to protect the interests of American citizens. Our mission is to consistently and persistently shine a spotlight on the ways the public is being threatened, disarmed, and stolen from by corrupt government institutions.
