“Help us defend democracy and freedom in Hong Kong”, 21 July 2020

… On July 6… Hong Kong’s governing body effectively destroyed the idea of an autonomous, democratic Hong Kong by imposing a series of measures designed to eliminate privacy, sharpen censorship, and curb freedom of speech…

… Today we’re announcing a new initiative to defend democracy, privacy, and freedom of speech in Hong Kong.

We will be donating 50% of our revenue from July and August 2020 from Hong Kong to support two local civil rights organizations: 612 Humanitarian Relief Fund and Stand With Hong Kong.

Over the course of this campaign, we hope to raise over HK$1,000,000 (about US$130,000) to help defend freedom in Hong Kong…

At Proton, we believe in freedom and democracy for all citizens of the world, and we have long been supporting the activist community in Hong Kong… We hope that through our financial support, the cause for freedom in Hong Kong can continue to burn brightly.
