Mr. Speaker, there have been consultations among the House leaders, and I hope you will find unanimous consent for the following motion. I move: Whereas, protesters in China who are fighting for basic human rights and freedoms have been using an Airdrop feature on iPhones to avoid government censors, and Whereas, Apple has announced its decision to disable that feature solely for phones in China, and Whereas, such a move will make it more difficult for the protesters to avoid the authoritarian restrictions on communications, and Whereas, other tech giants like Google have long collaborated with the Chinese regime in its policies to control online content and communication, Therefore, this house condemn the decision by Apple and other tech giants for their complicity in the crackdown against peaceful protesters in China.
