The app for independent voices

What are people hearing about ordinary Hongkongers' reactions to the Security Law?

To my surprise I spoke to a HK friend last night and she said that most people are glad that the protests are over as they were making the city unlivable. One of her friends runs a building business and he has the contract to maintain MTR stations. He said that the turnstiles/card readers had been damaged so many times they had run out of spare parts.

Secondly, as reported on Sinocism, the HK SFC is unable to give a definitive opinion as to whether shorting stocks or producing negative analysis on mainland companies amounts to subversion. How is this going to impact Western banks etc in HK?
