what I don't get about some of these regimes, is if your 'system' is so great then you shouldn't be threatened by foreign influences at all.

ultimately it shows - your system is built on 'sinking' sand.

I believe the logic is simple, the same as with advertising illegal drugs: lies can be seductive and do harm. HK officials make people consider any outer information as lies-filled propaganda, and thus justify the prohibition.

Foreign influence in social media and news media is a publicly admitted concern by American government, EU, China, and that’s just the ones I read about. So you logic doesn’t make sense.
