A friend asks what can be done to assist the activists. Here\'s a partial list, of varying legality and practicality:\
\
\* Advocate for relaxing US immigration suppression laws for HK citizens allowing them to live and work in the US\
\* Fund research on seasteading to allow HK citizens to flee from China\'s grasp\
\* Start seasteading companies and invite HK citizens to live on them\
\* Issue social policy bonds that pay out if/when Chinese starts respecting freedom of speech/assembly, releases political prisoners, etc\
\* Fund bounties on the heads of the most authoritarian Chinese politicians\
\* Create software that allow HK citizens to automatically create \"dead man\'s bounties\" on the heads of Chinese politicians if they are imprisoned, killed, tortured\
\* Smuggle guns/money/ammo into/out of China\
\* Selectively hire HK citizens for startups, etc.\
\* Fund anonymity tech like Monero, Session, I2P/Tor, etc and promote it\'s use in China\
\* Promote 3-d printed gun, DIY ammo tech in China\
\* Start a non-profit to smuggle HK dissidents out of the country (the Silk Railroad)\
\* Buy up large tracts of land in a poor country in Africa / South America, and bribe the local government to allow HK citizens to freely live and work there\
\* Promote special economic zones in Latin America that allow HK citizens to freely live and work there\
\* Promote decentralized P2P mesh networks (Locha Mesh, Althea, Loki)\
