No they wouldn't. It wasn't just the player that got banned, the 2 casters also got banned for not shutting him down. Blizzard have also literally handed out 1,000 YEAR BANS to members on their forums for even mentioning Hong Kong. https://t.co/OOO1hsqowT

I wasn't able to get this section in to my article in the Guardian, https://t.co/m334ygEC6T, but here's a list of hopefully China-free alternatives to any Blizzard games if you're looking to play something else. #BoycottBlizzard

It's nice to be able to stand up and say 'Fuck @Blizzard_Ent' for their stance on free speech, I try to stand up in my own little way in a Guardian feature about boycotting Blizzard, and their games that I dearly love. #BoycottBlizzard https://t.co/m334ygEC6T

This is a fascinating turn of events. A new weapon in the arsenal of those trying to push back against Chinese censorship of companies? Trying to associate company products with CCP red lines so that they get blocked https://t.co/kNcXsD86Of

Interesting: Gamers pissed that Blizzard punished a Hearthstone player for his 'liberate Hong Kong' remark are punishing Blizzard back by trying to get one of its products banned in China, turning a video game character into a pro-Democracy meme. https://t.co/8tnvZHUptl

This pure information warfare attack surface is brilliant. Blizzard punished a player for being pro Hong Kong. Players are attempting to get Blizzard games banned by Chinese censors. Winnie the Pooh is already censored due to memes about Xi, so this isn’t too unrealistic a goal. https://t.co/OR485MaDb6
