Hong Kong Police requested, under threat of prosecution under the National Security Law, that Israeli company Wix disable Nathan Law‘s website 2021hkcharter.com. Wix complied.
Update: Former lawmaker Sixtus Baggio Leung website hosted by WordPress appears to also have been forced offline.
Update 3 June: Law’s website has been restored by Wix after being taken down on 31 May.
The screenshots mentioned in the letter were not included in Law’s tweet about the website takedown, here is a quote from Law’s statement about the takedown.
Law’s statement in full is below
To promote and help local business 30 April – 3 May 2020 will be Five Demands Week. A unique Hong Kong version of ‘Golden Week’.
Business who wish to support Hong Kong can register a promotion or discount by 30 April.
During Five Demands Week get out and support those businesses who believe in Hong Kong ‘One Country, Two Systems’ and the legal system Hong Kong has prospered and thrived under for hundreds of years.
Peacefully and Politely Enjoy 5:1 Golden Week
Remember the importance of social distancing!
Don’t give the police a chance to fine you for being a group of more than four.
Beware of the violent Beijing sycophants… Sadly the police have shown through inaction and selective enforcement, that the laws of Hong Kong no longer apply to those who worship at the anus of Pooh.
Phase 1 (Before April 30th):
By offering discounts to customers during promotion activities, retailers can be registered as businesses under the HK Golden Week and join other shops in promotion across social media platforms.
Phase 2 (April 30th – May 3rd):
Customers are offered discounts upon purchase during this discount period by showing either the promotion pamphlet or QR code in registered yellow shops.
*All offers of discounts are up to each individual retailer.
