Signal is drawing a hard line on the federal government’s proposed surveillance legislation: comply with Bill C-22 or leave the country. The secure messaging app says it would rather ditch the Canadian market than be forced to weaken the privacy protections it has built its reputation on. In an interview with The Globe and Mail

    Emailed my MP. Wrote out a slew of issues this bill has. Do it. Dont go oh i should do that, or I will later, im talking to YOU reading this. Because i am you. I procrastinate. I tell myself others will fight against this.

    Have you looked south of the border recently? Hows that going for them?

    Web search your MP. Write the damn email. We need to get off our lazy asses and speak up. Step by step they will strip our privacy away until every digital interaction will be tied to your SIN. To your face.

      Any chance you could share that list of issues to help others with their letters? I feel like including something like that helps to get the letters noticed.

      Did you put three spaces at the end of each your sentences‽

      Some look like 3 spaces, and some look like 2 spaces… but I don’t see any that have the correct number: 1.

        Traditionally 2 spaces after the period at the end of a sentence is correct. It is still considered correct to this day, though is the “old” method.

        1 space is not the only correct way.
