Apparently, the Chinese government brought the hammer down on Naomi for pointing out how they spy on Signal used via a third-party keyboard on phones

That's what she's criticizing her western followers and the western media for not doing.

We don't actually know what's happening. She has always been concerned about Winnie the Pooh's minions shutting her down, like they silence so many others in their country.

We have to assume that's what happened, and if it has, we really don't know what is the course of action likely to be helpful and not make the situation even worse for Naomi.

Trying to embarrass the Chinese government generally doesn't make them apologize and back down.
