A Hong Kong court rejected a government-requested ban on broadcasting or distributing the protest song 'Glory to Hong Kong,' in a landmark decision that rejected a challenge to freedom of expression in the city.
Local residents sing a theme song written by protesters "Glory be to thee" at a shopping mall in Hong Kong on Sept. 11, 2019. A Hong Kong court rejected Friday, July 28, 2023, a government-requested ban on broadcasting or distributing the protest song “Glory to Hong Kong," in a landmark decision that rejected a challenge to freedom of expression in the city.
Chan said the court considered whether an injunction would provide any greater deterrence than existing criminal law, and its potential chilling effect. The Hong Kong government has tried to push Google to display China's national anthem as the top result in searches for the city's anthem instead of the song but to no avail.
