Ng Man-ho, a 27-year-old computer technician, was convicted last month of seven counts of incitement charges after he made use of the 100,000-member Chinese-language channel that he runs and manages to post "seditious messages," which had been shut down since August 2020. So far, more than a dozen different members have contributed to the group, posting voice notes of themselves screaming, yelling, groaning, and wailing in various pitches and rhythms.

Ng had the power to remove or amend the messages in the channel, but he “allowed them to exist.” In 2018, Telegram’s audience reached 200 million people, with 500,000 new users joining the messenger every day.
