> Most Western customers really do not care. Like, really-really.
I think this is starting to change and it gives me a lot of hope. The fallout from the NBA and Blizzard incidents was pretty significant and the HK protests received far more attention than any others in recent years.
I think if the set of people who play Hearthstone/Overwatch and the set people who watch the NBA can both get riled up about the same issue it's spread well beyond the tech community. Eventually YouTube will have to start caring.
I think those are different to this though because those had an effect on the content being produced ie(e)sports competitions. YouTube censoring comments I doubt will gain much attention. I do think the mob outrage of places like twitter and reddit will hopefully start pushing companies morally because it let's people kick up much more of a fuss than normal
