Nah man my guess is the opposite. Idk if you saw any news articles about humans rights abuses in Hong Kong on like Facebook, but all through the comments there were these new, empty accounts posting videos and debating other commentors saying that the protestors had deserved it for xyz reasons. Well, they didnt deserve to have expired teargas used on them, which produces toxic chemicals such as cyanide and phosgene. People were experiencing ongoing persistant coughing and coughing up bloood. Over 1000 rounds of teargas have been used so far, as well as 800 rubber bullets which are also no joke.

To argue that they are not biased. Planned move seems likely and done in consultation with themselves. All of a sudden Goolag/FB/You Tube and Twitter are now the good guys standing against Chinese influence!!?? Watch in coming hearings these players tout this as evidence. This will get a good run on CNN China News Network

Who can verify that the accounts were real accounts and were actually suspended? What would stop any of those companies from putting out a press release saying they suspended x number of accounts due to not following rule z?
I don't trust any of those companies... and if this IS real news, then it is likely the accounts were in support of HK. Gulag does work with and for China. Let's not ever forget that.
