Greetings citizens of the world, this is an important message from Anonymous.
The government of China has put the lives of millions of people at risk, and may have already unleashed a deadly pandemic on the world. It is no secret that the Chinese government actively controls the flow of information going both in and out of their borders. This fact is so well known that we call it the great firewall of China. China has also become much more wealthy and influential over the years, which has allowed them to control how events in the country are covered in the rest of the world as well, as we saw with the coverage of the recent protests in Hong Kong.
Now, this same censorship apparatus in China is working to suppress information about the spread of the deadly coronavirus and the conditions that are being seen inside the quarantined areas. Tens of millions of people in the country, possibly even more, have now been quarantined and ordered to not leave the region as fear of the outbreak is spreading, but it obvious that the government waited far too long before taking serious measures to contain the virus.
Even now, the government is doing its best to downplay the severity of the situation by controlling the media statements and deleting any information from social media that contradicts their official claims. The official numbers from the Chinese government suggest that there have only been a few deaths and a few hundred confirmed cases, but videos and photo footage that have been sent to Anonymous shows a far different situation unfolding within the quarantine zone.
Footage taken from the contamination zones shows overcrowded hospitals filled with sick and concerned citizens, and other videos show a significant number of infected people dropping over the street. This is the type of footage that the Chinese government has been desperately trying to wipe from the internet. In fact, some Chinese citizens have even been arrested for spreading information about the virus.
