[<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scmp.com\/news\/hong-kong\/article\/1557159\/alleged-details-apple-daily-founder-jimmy-lais-political-donations\">Source<\/a><\/strong>]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>At the Asia Sentinel, editor <a href=\"http:\/\/www.asiasentinel.com\/politics\/hong-kong-press-under-increasing-attack\/\"><strong>John Berthelsen situates Lai&#8217;s situation into a\u00a0greater crackdown on Hong Kong media<\/strong><\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>It has long been known that big business in Hong Kong, obviously worried about Big Brother over the border, has boycotted Apple Daily, the territory\u2019s most popular newspaper, because of the rocky relationship of its owner, media tycoon Jimmy Lai Chee-ying, with Beijing.<\/p>\n<p>But just how much Lai has been hammered turned up this week in 900-odd files apparently hacked from his personal computer and leaked to several pro-Beijing publications. What has happened to Lai is increasingly emblematic of the pressure that a wide range of Hong Kong\u2019s independent press is under. That pressure stems from both local and Chinese governments, oligarchic owners and thugs employed by unknown sources to beat them up.<\/p>\n<p>In February, Asia Sentinel reported that the press faces slow but relentless erosion of what has long been regarded as not only the freest and most diversified press in Asia outside Japan but what has traditionally been the most important listening post on China itself. That is critical today with the Chinese government cracking down on the New York Times and Bloomberg for reporting critically on the vast riches amassed by members of the families of China\u2019s top leadership. And, as pressure increases on the Hong Kong and international press, the need for a free press is growing. [&#8230;] [<a href=\"http:\/\/www.asiasentinel.com\/politics\/hong-kong-press-under-increasing-attack\/\"><strong>Source<\/strong><\/a>]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The 900 leaked documents were obtained by cyberattacks on Lai&#8217;s personal communications. Another article from the Sentinel describes\u00a0this as\u00a0just the most recent\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.asiasentinel.com\/opinion\/hacker-havoc-hong-kong-activists\/\"><strong>hacking assault in a campaign Against\u00a0Hong Kong&#8217;s press and pro-democracy movement, about which\u00a0the Hong Kong government has so far remained silent<\/strong><\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The Hong Kong government is maintaining a sullen silence in the face of military-grade cyber-terrorism unleashed over recent weeks against pro-democracy activists and the press. There has been no official protest over violations of Hong Kong\u2019s Internet infrastructure or invasion of privacy of its citizens.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]\u00a0Media baron Jimmy Lai Chee-ying, the publisher of the hugely popular Apple Daily and Next magazine, which champion \u201ctrue democracy,\u201d had his computers hacked and phone conversations wiretapped, probably by unknown figures in China, although that can&#8217;t be proven. About 900 documents detailing his donations to democracy groups were leaked to pro-Beijing publications, with comrades baying for investigation into Lai\u2019s contributions \u2013 which are not illegal under any law in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;] The Lai hacking follows barely a month after a massive distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack in June to derail the servers and networks of the mock public referendum organized by the citizens\u2019 movement Occupy Central on methods to elect the 2017 chief executive. The PopVote project was designed jointly by the Public Opinion Program of the University of Hong Kong and the Social Policy Research Centre of the HK Polytechnic University.<\/p>\n<p>Matthew Prince, CEO of CloudFlare, which volunteered cyber security for PopVote, was astounded by the \u201cstunning amount of traffic,\u201d which reached 300 gigabits of data\/sec at peak, making it the second highest DDoS attack ever recorded in internet history. The largest reached 400 gigabits\/sec. Apparently about 40 percent of the assault had been re-directed to local Hong Kong systems using the \u201c.hk\u201d domain name, causing overall downgrading of network performance beyond the specific targets of the hacker army.<\/p>\n<p>These two high-profile violations unhinge the territory\u2019s reputation for data security and right to privacy for individuals, groups and corporations. Almost overnight, all assumptions of a \u201csafe zone\u201d for data integrity have been shredded. The scale and brazenness of the targeted cyber-assaults have stunned the usually vigorous and hyper-alert legal community and journalists. No one knows what to make of the silence from the government of this international financial center on such fundamental rights.
