Nepali Journalists Take Onto Street Against Social Media Ban
Nepali journalists display placards calling on the government to backtrack on its decision to impose a ban on social media, citing non-compliance with its order to get registered, during a protest in Kathmandu, Nepal, on September 7, 2025. The protest is called by the former office bearers and members of the Federation of Nepali Journalists, the umbrella organization of journalists in Nepal. The participating journalists carry placards with slogans reading ''#NoBan,'' ''Freedom of Expression Is Our Right,'' ''The People's Voice Cannot Be Silenced,'' and ''Democracy Is Being Hacked, Dictatorship Is Coming Back,'' among others. Rage slowly increases in Nepal against the government's decision to shut down over two dozen social media platforms, which it claims is an effort to tax the revenue they generate in the country and to control content critical of the government. Following the order from the government, social media sites go dark past midnight on September 4. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto) -

Hong Kong activist Nathan Law applies for asylum in Britain. Exclusive: Law said he chose UK in hope of ‘sounding an alarm’ over threats to democracy in Europe from China.
Nathan Law photographed in London where he lives in exile. Nathan Law Kwun-chung is an activist from Hong Kong. As a former student leader, he has been chairman of the Representative Council of the Lingnan University Students' Union (LUSU), acting president of the LUSU, and secretary-general of the Hong Kong Federation of Students (HKFS). He was one of the student leaders during the 79-day Umbrella Movement in 2014. He is the founding and former chairman of Demosisto?, a new political party derived from the 2014 protests.
On 4 September 2016, at the age of 23, Law was elected to serve as a legislator for Hong Kong Island, making him the youngest lawmaker in the history of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong. Over his controversial oath-taking at the Legislative Council inaugural meeting, his office was challenged by the Hong Kong Government which resulted in his disqualification from the Legislative Council on 14 July 2017. Chris Patten, the last British governor of Hong Kong, has described him as "a typically brave representative of a generation whose spirit the Communist Party wants to stamp out."
Following the enactment of the National Security Law on 1 July 2020, Law announced that he had moved to London, United Kingdom.

Nathan Law photographed in London where he lives in exile. Nathan Law Kwun-chung is an activist from Hong Kong. As a former student leader, he has been chairman of the Representative Council of the Lingnan University Students' Union (LUSU), acting president of the LUSU, and secretary-general of the Hong Kong Federation of Students (HKFS). He was one of the student leaders during the 79-day Umbrella Movement in 2014. He is the founding and former chairman of Demosisto?, a new political party derived from the 2014 protests.
On 4 September 2016, at the age of 23, Law was elected to serve as a legislator for Hong Kong Island, making him the youngest lawmaker in the history of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong. Over his controversial oath-taking at the Legislative Council inaugural meeting, his office was challenged by the Hong Kong Government which resulted in his disqualification from the Legislative Council on 14 July 2017. Chris Patten, the last British governor of Hong Kong, has described him as "a typically brave representative of a generation whose spirit the Communist Party wants to stamp out."
Following the enactment of the National Security Law on 1 July 2020, Law announced that he had moved to London, United Kingdom.
