    Seriously?
    Blizzard is against protests for human rights?

    @Root well they're in favor of not being banned in China so they have to police how their product is perceived in order to protect their income. After all they create games, they are not press or news so it's a bit a complicated matter and I understand why they would.
    Still not nice but understandable.

    @Pickman Fair. Staying out of it isn't good enough for China. I forgot how easily-offended they are and how much they overreact to political things.

    @Root Well, Tencent owns 5% of Blizzard shares and they've already been trying for some time to expand into China with all kinds of stupid ideas.

    Btw, now a university team in the tournament caused a shutdown of the stream after they held up a sign saying something like "free Hongkong, boycott Blizzard".
