Removal of Cytus II in Mainland China
On July 2020, Cytus II was removed from the app stores in Mainland China due to the musical director of the company, Wilson Lam (stage name ICE), releasing a musical piece named "Telegraph 1344 7609 2575" on his personal social media accounts which contains Morse code of the phrase "Liberate Hong Kong, the revolution of our times", a common slogan in support of the Hong Kong protests. Lam was resigned from the company soon after the incident, with the piece quickly removed from his social media accounts.[4][5]
