In this episode, Dave and Grahm talk with Leo Weese, a Bitcoiner and statistician living in Hong Kong about the anti-extradition bill protests in his city that have been escalating over the past week. Leo explains why Hong Kong isn't already under mainland China's rule as well as how serious of an infringement this bill could be on the rights of the citizens of Hong Kong and foreign nationals passing through the city. He gives tips for safe, private communication and how that has made the protests more effective.
