Key quote from the article:

Chan said he ordered an Apple Pencil on Oct. 27 and was expecting its delivery today. But he got an email from Apple yesterday asking him to provide his phone number so that employees could get in touch with him.

As a self-described “loyal Apple fan,” Chan said he was disappointed by the company’s decision. He said “liberate HKERS” was a “neutral phrase” and questioned their disregard of Hongkongers’ right to free speech.

“They didn’t even send me an email because they didn’t want it written down in black and white,” Chan said.
