Unfortunately not the first time either. Reminded me of Naomi Wu.

Who, for anyone unaware, is mostly safe at this time.

She was visited by government goons and basically had her entire activism and tech business confiscated, and she said that anyone who wants to support her should purchase the tourist tech-buying guide she’s produced over the years. She also said that any further content on her YouTube should be considered suspect, as she’s not going to be making more videos for the foreseeable future.

While I hope that is true, the only thing we know is she hasn’t been active online since July 2023, and that was a text post to Twitter. It’s terrifying to think that we will never really know if she is safe or not. I recall several people in the 3d printing space that had previously regularly spoken to her that also mentioned she went radio silent in private as well.
