To clarify for others, as I had no idea who this person was, apparently she is
"China's #1 Tech & DIY YouTuber
Open Source, 3D Printing & Digital Fabrication, Automation, Infosec"
And it seems like she got a visit from the government for saying something not acceptable to the party (?) and is unable to leave to preserve her free speech because her partner (?) cannot leave the country.
Another day in China.

I have read her tweets and non of them really seem anti-party to me. Heck she has been accused as a "communist agent" by many other twitter accounts. Also this is not really the first she has got a visit from the local authorities https://medium.com/@therealsexycyborg/shenzhen-tech-girl-naomi-wu-part-3-defunding-deplatforming-and-detention-140fed4b9554 https://medium.com/@therealsexycyborg/shenzhen-tech-girl-nao.... She got one even in 2019 November and she was able to continue just fine. Also none of her tweets seem deleted and her account is still not blocked, so I am a bit skeptical if it has anything to do with her tweets. I have a feeling it is more to do with her public appearances that the authorities probably disliked. I mean Chinese are normally pretty conservative with public dressing. https://www.scmp.com/news/people-culture/gender-diversity/article/3224902/what-you-said-truly-ugly-woman-passengers-hit-back-man-over-scantily-clad-taunts-china-subway-train https://www.scmp.com/news/people-culture/gender-diversity/ar... Naomi on the other even by Western standards was a little too revealing(https://www.dexerto.com/tech/tech-youtuber-says-adult-content-ban-has-kept-her-from-running-twitter-ads-2158008/ https://www.dexerto.com/tech/tech-youtuber-says-adult-conten...). Her wardrobe choice is normally not very tolerated in China. I am actually shocked that the local authorities allowed her for these many years to carry on like this.
