If it turns out PRC messes with HK's traffic, PRC is going to lose a load of trust over this.

Businesses relying on VPN'ing home to function, those believe its a human right to choose their leadership.

Why shouldn't the fragrant harbor enjoy same autonomy the rest of these received?

What's there to fear? Do Hong Kongers not share the same kindred blood, language (as far as Cantonese, at least in Guangdong), culture.

Why not let Hong Konger's vote for independence? Scotland had a chance in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_Scottish_independence_ref.... What keeps it together? I don't know. Trust? Respect?

Is there trust and respect between HK <-> China? I've been between GZ/HK many times. They're different places. If PRC wants to be an example to others of their own philosophy and system, they should do it by building trust over time, not by using a hammer.
