    Good thing Carney maintained his 46% voter approval rating and his liberals won the 3 most recent by-elections securing a legislative majority now he can go full mask off by backdooring e2ee messaging, having the rcmp rip open people’s letters without a warrant, forcing telecoms to retain metadata for a year, giving american spy agencies the ability to survey canadians without oversight. Bill c-22 is a steaming pile of crap.

      I wish HTTPS and CIRA DNS and my pihole with unbound and future things would help me sleep at night, but knowing that the government is pushing for privacy to be nonexistent is disappointing. Well at least I know advertisers know next to nothing about me, and it is becoming increasingly harder for them to spy on me as I move more and more to self hosting.
