the only memorial of its kind within China to victims of the 1989 crackdown.<\/p>\n<p>Its exhibitions documented Beijing&#8217;s decision to use tanks to quell democracy protests in the Chinese capital and Hong Kong&#8217;s three-decade history of holding annual candlelight vigils for those killed.<\/p>\n<div id=\"tms-ad-inread-42688166223208657\" class=\"tms-ad\" data-tms-ad-type=\"inread\" data-tms-ad-provider=\"invibes\" data-tms-ad-status=\"started\">\n<div id=\"divVideoStepAdBottom\" class=\"divVideoStep\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>But officials from the city&#8217;s Food and Environmental Hygiene Department visited in early June and declared the venue &#8212; which had operated on and off for years &#8212; did not have the correct license.<\/p>\n<p>With the city&#8217;s Tiananmen vigils already effectively banned by authorities since last year, the move came as little surprise to many.<\/p>\n<p>Which is why dissident Chinese author Chang Ping, a former student leader back in 1989, spent the past year leading a group of anonymous activists to create an online version of the museum.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We hope to save the spirit of 30 years&#8217; candlelight commemoration in Hong Kong, which was an unparalleled act of resistance in human history,&#8221; Chang told AFP by phone from his home in Germany.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; &#8216;We needed to race the clock&#8217; &#8211;<\/p>\n<p>The online museum project is just one of many where cyberspace has become a place to preserve remnants of a city that is being remoulded in authoritarian China&#8217;s own image after huge democracy protests two years ago.<\/p>\n<p>The Hong Kong Alliance, which ran the museum and organized the annual Tiananmen vigils, knew they might not survive, especially after China imposed a security law last year that criminalized much dissent.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the group&#8217;s leaders have since been arrested and the coalition is on the verge of disbanding &#8212; but not before it fundraised HK$1.6 million ($215,000) to build a virtual Noah&#8217;s Ark for their movement.<\/p>\n<p>Other projects had far less lead time to prepare.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Wong, a software developer who asked to use a pseudonym, scrambled to mobilize coders earlier this year to preserve what they could of the city&#8217;s outspoken pro-democracy Apple Daily tabloid.<\/p>\n<p>Its millionaire owner Jimmy Lai was already in jail and facing national security charges over campaigning for sanctions against China.<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-em-image\">\n<figure class=\"m-figure m-figure--original\">\n<div class=\"m-figure__img-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"m-figure__img\" src=\"https:\/\/s.france24.com\/media\/display\/8772bbe4-06da-11ec-a1ad-005056a90284\/f1024bb808cf58859d61a2f275d8c9a84db7b862.webp\" alt=\"Hong Kong's pro-democracy newspaper Apple Daily was forced to cease operations in June\" data-image-dataset=\"{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/s.france24.com\\\/media\\\/display\\\/8772bbe4-06da-11ec-a1ad-005056a90284\\\/&quot;,&quot;filename&quot;:&quot;f1024bb808cf58859d61a2f275d8c9a84db7b862.jpg&quot;,&quot;ratio&quot;:null,&quot;displayFormat&quot;:&quot;original&quot;}\" \/><\/div><figcaption class=\"m-figure__caption\"><em><span class=\"a-media-legend\">Hong Kong&#8217;s pro-democracy newspaper Apple Daily was forced to cease operations in June<\/span> <\/em><span class=\"a-media-legend\"><em>Bertha WANG<\/em><br \/>\n<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>But in early June police used the national security law to freeze the paper&#8217;s assets and within little more than a week it collapsed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We needed to race the clock,&#8221;

and found tech-savvy volunteers willing to scrape the tabloid&#8217;s website.<\/p>\n<p>They harvested over two million pages and archived them on the searchable website collection.news by writing around 10,000 lines of code, Wong said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Being the more tech-savvy guys, we feel we have more obligation to help preserve the history of Hong Kong,&#8221;
