While the spotlight has been shining brightly on black home made sex video 2018the NBA for its handling of a critical tweet about China's response to pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong, the NBA isn't alone.

Major global companies have been bowing to both direct and indirect pressure from China's political leaders to control how the economic powerhouse of a country is portrayed for some time.

To put all the cowering in perspective, one Redditor posted a list recognizing censorship orders and complaints against some of the most prominent companies that have yielded to such requests both recently and as far back as 2017. The list was later copied and shared widely on Twitter, making its way into a Twitter moment.

We've pulled some of the biggest brands from the list and added more context here:
