May 15, 2024, 12:05 AM

YouTube has announced it will comply with a Hong Kong court order to block access to 32 video links featuring the protest anthem 'Glory to Hong Kong.' The court order follows the Hong Kong government's request to ban the anthem, which has been a symbol of the city's pro-democracy protests. The geoblocking of these videos will take effect immediately for viewers in Hong Kong. YouTube expressed disappointment with the court's decision but confirmed its compliance with the removal order.
