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?

Cpp is a misspelling of the acronym Chinese Communist party aka CCP.
