Hong Kong appeals court overturns ruling, bans popular protest song "Glory to Hong Kong".

A Hong Kong appeals court has granted the government's request to ban the popular protest song "Glory to Hong Kong", overturning an earlier ruling. The song had gained popularity during the 2019 anti-government protests and became the unofficial anthem for the demonstrations. In its ruling, the court emphasized exemptions for academic and journalistic activities. Critics argue that the ban further reduces freedom of expression in Hong Kong.
