      The tragic stupidity of all this is Canada should be playing the „we’re not the US with their Cloud Act“ angle, and promoting sane security and privacy practices instead of undermining them.

      It has, to date, been an active point in favour of Canadian tech, with companies like RIM and TailScale, and open source projects like OpenBSD, all having made it a point of justified pride to do the right thing. The government seem way too keen to throw this legacy away.

      Liberal party: We can’t keep putting the sign in the window. Things have changed. The USA is no longer trustworthy.

      Also Liberal party: Give Trump’s biggest donors like Zuckerberg 1 year of your data to be stored in an insecure database. Your safety depends on it.

      C22 is a goddamn terrible bill, at a time when Canada needs to be running in the opposite direction as American Authoritarianism. Carney’s a fuckin prick on this one

      Oh shoot. Windscribe is what i use, along with Proton ( free locations ) as a backup.

      IF windscribe pulls out, guess i will become a Proton paid customer even though it costs more 😉

      I’ve emailed my MP and the PM expressing my dislike of C-22. I suggest everyone do the same.

      Society went for many years communicating with letters, tappable phone lines and open radio waves. This let the good guys keep us safe. All of this high powered encryption from the last few years can be used to hide some pretty scary stuff.

      if this bill passes in its current form I sincerely hope every company affected even in the slightest pulls out entirely and causes severe disruption.

      This is a shit bill.

      Canada is just standardizing its laws with that of the EU. Read up on „Chat Control“ & DSA. 

    14. EmbarrassedHelp on

      Multiple groups have made easy to use tools for sending your MP and (other members of government) an email about rejecting this terrible legislation in its current form:

      * The Internet Society’s tool: https://www.internetsociety.org/our-work/internet-policy/keep-canada-protected/

      * OpenMedia’s messaging tool: https://action.openmedia.org/page/188754/action/1

      * ICLM’s messaging tool: https://iclmg.ca/stop-c-22/

      I’d also recommend emailing Minister of Public Safety of Canada (Gary Anandasangaree: gary.anand@parl.gc.ca), and the Minister of Justice (Sean Fraser: sean.fraser@parl.gc.ca).

      Its not really a threat, its the reality of how these technologies work not even they want/should have a backdoor. A forced backdoor is bad; this bill is bad

      I really hate this bill and I really like windscribe, I have recommended it to friends and have used it when I needed a VPN. I liked supporting Canadian.

      I wish they could express displeasure, make their calls to action without bringing the integrity of our institutions into question. We don’t need corruption for governments to make really dumb laws.
