Sadly this is what I’ve been feeling nowadays.
She has a large social media presence. Her followers should be the one raising the flag, making noise. And that echo chamber should magnify so the media can’t ignore it. Expecting the media to pick it up without her fans doing so first is weird. We should be able to point to the discussion forums the Twitter storms the Reddit threads etc where people are getting up in arms over their favorite creator disappearing. But we’re not. This this news article doesn’t cite it.
So something’s missing.
Yup, I only posted it on the off chance that there is some truth here or someone knowns more I’ve wondered why the Chinese Government didn’t shut her down long ago It would be hard for them to not know she’s getting around their measures and what she’s posting or if she is/was an agent of government propaganda promoting Chinese tech Also ties in with the LMG drama as she has accused Linus of sexual harassment and propositioning her on a trip to China
Ohh… that sounds very dramatic. do you have links? I’d love to read more
You can read the Reddit thread with Naomi commenting on the matter here:

It’s not like we don’t have our own problems over here that take up our time.
Also one of the increasingly problematic issues is getting news out of China

At least talk about.
That’s what she’s criticizing her western followers and the western media for not doing.
The thought that all the western world can do is to either declare war or sit on our hands is plain wrong.
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.
What is there to talk about? We only know what’s being shared outside of China. Which is not a lot. I watch the China show, which seems one of the few sources that doesn’t just regurgitate the government propaganda but we can only do so much.
The best course of action for her is to leave China. Maybe not an option for her due to personal reasons, but staying in Shenzhen is her choice.

She’s absolutely right.
