Read this article in English. 香港正面臨黑暗的日子。7 月 6 日深夜，香港政府強推一系列措施，公然侵害私隱、加強審查，並打壓言論自由。自治、民主的香港，從此蕩然無存。 自由之戰向來無分國界，若要成功，我們必先聯成一線。香港這場戰鬥，就是世界的戰鬥，我們每個人都義無反顧，定當站在香港的一方。今天，為了捍衛民主、私隱和言論自由，我們正式宣布一項新的籌款活動。 我們將會捐出 2020 年 7、8 月份香港業務的一半收益，以支援兩個本地民權團體，分別是：612 人道支援基金，以及攬炒團隊（Stand With Hong Kong）。 活動期間，我們希望籌得逾 1,000,000 港元，為捍衛香港自由一役略盡綿力。截至 2020 年 7 月 20 日，是次籌款活動暫籌得 171,000 元。 為何香港急需我們的支持 自 1997 年，香港在《基本法》保障人民基本權利的條件下，成為了中國的特別行政區。儘管這些法律保障獲得國際認可，中國當局仍屢屢蠶蝕香港的自由。香港人民為了竭力守護他們享有的自由，紛紛走上了街頭。 為了鎮壓示威運動，中國在 6 月 30 日通過《港區國家安全法》，訂立沒有清晰定義的「顛覆國家政權」罪名，為中國在香港行使鐵腕政治手段鋪路，這些手段包括奧威爾式審查、無手令下擅闖民居搜查、對政治囚犯進行秘密審判、強迫他們認罪，甚至動用私刑。是次頒布的法例，以及在 7 月 6 日公佈的實施細則，從根本上扭轉了香港的局勢。事實上，中國的「防火長城」現已可伸向香港，而抗爭者亦將隨時遭到肆意拘留和刑事起訴。 我們 Proton 亦察覺到這些影響。香港人已長年透過 Proton Mail 和 Proton VPN，保障自己的網絡通訊和網上活動免受政府監控。7 月 6 日起，Proton VPN […]
