A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

I never heard of Naomi Wu before.
All of the sudden, articles like this one are all over the place showing a woman with red hair in provocative outfits claiming to be a tech activist being silenced.
Would anyone care to give me a two line summary of who she is and what her deal is?
Big celebrity of the "maker" space. Often showed signs of protest against the CPP, while living in China. Often controversial due to appearance.
What is "maker space"? What is the CPP besides a C++ file? A Chinese agency?

They mean "makers," the kind of people into making using a variety of technologies including but not limited to woodworking, 3D printing, metalworking, leatherworking. Not usually all at once, but sometimes all at once. Incidentally you can rent a "maker space" which is just a physical space with tools to make things. Also, I think they meant CCP (Chinese Communist party).
Cpp is a misspelling of the acronym Chinese Communist party aka CCP.
