Version of the song that rose to fame during 2019 pro-democracy protests disappear from platforms including Spotify, iTunes and Facebook
Versions of Glory to Hong Kong, the unofficial anthem of the city’s pro-democracy movement in 2019, have disappeared from several streaming platforms, amid a government bid to ban online distribution of the song.
Variations of the song distributed by DGX Music, the team of creators who own the rights to the title, were no longer unavailable on Spotify, Apple’s iTunes, Facebook and KKBOX worldwide on Wednesday, though a rendition performed by a Taiwanese band still remained. Several music videos were also accessible on YouTube on Thursday.
