香港言論自由日益收縮的氛圍可能扼殺其亞洲藝術拍賣市場的龍頭地位:
"While local officials and museum bosses have yet to address concerns over any specific works, many in the city’s arts community fear that some of Mr. Sigg’s donated art won’t ever see the light of day.
Long reliant on the finance industry, Hong Kong has worked hard to become a global arts hub. It is among the world’s biggest art-auction markets and one of the three cities world-wide to host the Art Basel fair."
香港司法體系中國化的具體表現。
"there is nothing inherently unreasonable in directing a trial by a panel of three judges sitting without a jury, when there is a perceived risk of the personal safety of jurors and their family members or that due administration of justice might be impaired”.
法官恣意擴大心證。
“李官強調，只要律政司司長真誠地相信上述3個理由成立，她便有權指示不使用陪審團。判詞亦指，條文用上「等」字，可見除上述3個理由外，司長還可以有其他理由指示審訊不設陪審團。”

"政權上周四第二度搜查報館，撿取大批新聞材料，並以國安法拘捕五名高層，其中報館的社長張劍虹、總編輯羅偉光已被落案控告，還柙在獄。昨晨再拘捕主筆楊清奇，報館基於員工安全和人手考慮，決定停刊及停止新聞網站的運作。2021年6月24日之後，香港將沒有《蘋果》。《蘋果》死亡，新聞自由是暴政的犧牲品。"
美國的蘋果有可能繼香港的蘋果後成為中國政府下一個意圖搞死的標靶?
"The move by Beijing could have a chilling effect for foreign brands in China, including Apple. Apple dominates the high-end smartphone market in the country and counts China as one of its biggest markets, relying on it for about 19% of its overall revenue."
