South Koreans support Hong Kong as they recall their own struggle for freedom
//Two hundred people in black marched from Seoul City Hall to the Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in late November in support of the Hong Kong anti-Extradition Law Amendment Bill (anti- ELAB) Movement.
//They chanted slogans and held banners in Korean, English, and Chinese that read “We support Hong Kong Resistance”.
//“I stand with Hong Kong because their demands are fundamental human rights. And we believe the five demands are right,”
//South Korea has its own bloody history of democratic movements in the decades after the Korean War in the ’60s.
//“It saddens me to see citizens of Hong Kong getting hurt like what happened in Gwangju Uprising in 1980,” Kim sighs, a 57-year-old docent of the Asia Culture Center in Gwangju.
//“In both the Gwangju uprising and the anti-extradition bill movement, there is the suppression of democracy. Freedom of speech is violated and police officers do not face investigation for their brutality against protesters in Hong Kong,”
//“To help prevent a repeat of Gwangju history, some South Korean students have stood up to fight with Hong Kong,” Lim says, “And this is also why people in Gwangju support Hong Kong as well.”
//some South Koreans supporting Hong Kong’s democracy movement have also set up Lennon walls, mostly on campus, to encourage Hong Kong students studying in South Korea.
//“The saddest thing is that the students get hurt and die during their fight. I hope no one gets hurt any more […] I sincerely hope for the victory in Hong Kong,” said Bae Eun-sim, mother of Lee Han-yeol, who died after the June Democracy Movement of 1987.
//Despite strong resistance from Chinese students, a group of ordinary Korean citizens created a Facebook page, “Hong Kong Protest Lennon Wall in South Korea”, as a safer platform to express opinions and support the movement.
//While condemning vicious attacks on the physical Lennon Walls, the administrator stresses that they are not against any nationality and believe no discriminatory comments should be posted.
//Several other universities removing Lennon Walls on university campuses aroused suspicion about pressure from China.
//Students immediately responded to the measure and regarded it as further diminishing South Korea’s freedom of speech.
//“It is dubious. Some people think the South Korean media is being censored by pressure from pro-China groups,”
//“We ask Korean media to provide the public with in-depth reports that explain the root causes of the Hong Kong protest and its significance,” they say, “we would like to know the change in the social climate of Hong Kong after the 2019 Hong Kong local elections.”

Kodak Removes Instagram photos of Uyghurs' Mass Imprisonment in Xinjiang and Apologizes After Being Snipped by Chinese Netizens
Kodak, a camera equipment company, published photos of Xinjiang taken by a French photographer on Instagram. The post mentioned Xinjiang Uyghur human rights issues, causing dissatisfaction among Chinese netizens and left many messages under their Instagram account. Kodak then deleted the photos and published a statement at midnight, emphasizing that the post was not written by the company but by the photographer. They pointed out that their Instagram “is designed to promote creativity, not a platform of commencing politics" and apologized for the misunderstanding and offence caused by the post.
Chinese netizens forwarded the post to Weibo and launched a crazy flood to Kodak and Wack's accounts. Many Chinese netizens left messages on Wack’s posts “talentless and catch the eyeballs ideology” and “regardless how beautiful the picture is, if bias comes in place, the photographer will put a layer of filter on it”. Some Chinese media criticized, “Under Wack’s lens, the magnificent of Xinjiang is attractive but also carrying hidden messages”. Somebody supports him and praises his shots under his posts.

Facebook takes down China-based network spreading false COVID-19 claims
//The parent company of #Facebook and #Instagram said on Wednesday, December 1, 2021, it has taken down more than 600 accounts, pages and groups connected to a Chinese influence operation spreading #COVID19 #disinformation, including an account purporting to be a fictitious Swiss biologist.
The China-based network was one of six #Meta, formerly know as Facebook, removed in November for abusing its platforms, a reminder that bad actors around the world are using social media to promote false information and harass opponents.
The China-based operation came to light after the company was alerted to an account purporting to be a Swiss biologist named Wilson Edwards (no such person exists). The account posted claims on Facebook and Twitter in July that the U.S. was pressuring World Health Organization scientists to blame China for the COVID-19 virus. The posts alleging U.S. intimidation soon appeared in Chinese state media stories.//

A Finnish Athlete Calls for help due to a Big Water Leakage in the Athletes' Village; Chinese Official Requests to Delete the Video
In addition to the game results arguments, the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics also has issues outside the field.
Katri Lylynperä, a Finnish cross-country skier, recently shared her 2022 #Beijing Winter Olympic life on #Instagram Stories. Some of the stories showed a large amount of water was rushed out like an open water tap from the ceiling of her room, flooding her room in seconds, being able to make splashes with her feet. Her room and the walkway suddenly become a "sea view suite" with indoor rain from the ceiling. She Reluctantly called for help.
She even made jokes about it, "We have a waterfall here, and the flooding issue will be solved soon".
Soon after the video being posted, the first reaction of the authority was not to solve the leaking issue but to ask the athlete to remove the post. The handling method attracted many people saying, "They thought the whole world was using #Weibo (a Chinese microblogging website)", "lmao, China has got used to deleting others' videos".
