If we give them the benifit of the doubt and say they did not know what they know now then good on them for changing their opinions with new information.
If they did know and just bowed to pressure to change it then good on the system for working as intended to keep the goverment in check on something people were willing to fight for.
If you need privacy don’t put it online.
Caving to VPNs so they can make profit isn’t the answer.
I, for one, am so glad the Liberals are focusing on important things like stripping away our privacy rights once they got their majority!
Now let’s all keep our elbows extra high while we watch our airports get privatized.
The best amendment for this bill would be to run it through the amendment machine that slices it into quarter inch strips and crimps them into irregularly folded paper.
If everything governments and politicians say can get fact checked that would be great. The amount of disinformation the Liberals made up to justify their gun control policies is insane but no journalists called them out.
A lot of things they want ALREADY EXIST, they just need to get warrants from a judge.
Remember that, nearly everything they want ALREADY EXISTS, they just have to go through proper legal channels to do it.
The reason for the backlash and pushback, is the government wants to sidestep the warrant process and for Corporations to build backdoors into their systems so the RCMP and police and government can access anything, at any time for any reason.
Which would destroy most if not all data security.
Liberals:
Hello Canada is not for sale, also who wants to buy ports and airports. Oh also we want to censor you with Bill c22
I can tell you who was behind the vpn part of the bill being in the IT industry and following closely to my field. It was robelus, they have been against vpns for a very long time. They have been actively push the government to make them illegal.
No one voted for this shit. Fix the economy, fix the cost of living. Improve infrastructure, self sufficiency and trade agreements. FIX THE CPP. There’s lots of easy targets for the Carney liberals. Can we have at least one party not try to be tyrannical for once?
When even META says it’s bad you know it’s horrendous.
Good thing we have corporations that are negatively impacted by changes which help other corporations. Politicians only listen to corporations.
Didn’t the government claim this was just misinformation and these companies were reading the bill wrong..
If that was true they wouldn’t need to change it
I am thankful we have a government that listens to fact checks instead of doubling down on alternative facts and calling everything else fake news.
Yeesh, theres alot of paranoia in here.
Write to your MP about it. They are gaslighting us by saying „Well, we were misunderstood.“.
THEY misunderstood. Make yourself visible and we will be harder to ignore.
This pisses me off.
It pisses me off because it’s evidence that when people like me say the government doesn’t work for the people it governs, we’re right. The public is totally against this (except for a few paid actors, of course) for obvious reasons but the feds won’t listen to them. They’ll only listen to business interests. WTF is it with these guys? Do they not understand who elects them and what they’re supposed to do?
Instead of bitching and moaning about this on reddit, write and call your MP to voice your concerns.
It terrifying that it got this far.
I read the article, it’s summarizing a twitter post getting noted and the „acting assistant deputy minister“ (seriously?) to the cybersecurity branch saying they’ll consider making the legislation clearer to understand for stakeholders…
This feelsgood title is at the top of the sub but there is no indication they are changing the bill nor its overreach?
This bill is likely something the telecoms lobbied for.
This shouldn’t be over until the minister(s) responsible have been removed from the role and the entire idea is radioactive
Otherwise we’re just going to see the same zombie bill rising from the dead over and over again as soon as the usual special interests pony up more money
The Liberals don’t care about evidence or being truthful; we’ve seen that time and time again with the gun confiscation scheme. The Liberals will do what they want to do.
Job market in shambles but these tech bills are priority
FUCKING GOOD
Open to changing it? It’s gotta go.
They should goddamn be. This is the worst bill I’ve seen in my life and I worked for 20 years as an IT specialist.
They’ve been told it was a bad bill by very qualified people. Now, it’s up to them to change it or drop it entirely. Status quo is my preference. If you can’t improve things, at least don’t make things worse.
