It was launched for iOS on 14 August 2013 and Android on 20 October 2013. Judge Hui described Ng as inciting others to “commit a massacre” with three posts teaching people to make “toxic chlorine gas bombs,” target police stations, police quarters and the city’s metro stations. This offence was “rather serious,” the court said. To delete a channel with over 1,000 subscribers, you need to contact user support
