You mean the bill that would have required all Canadians to share personal information with adult websites? The bill she hand waved away any privacy concerns about?
It's an anti-porn bill, "think of the children" is just the excuse.

all Canadians to share personal information with adult websites?
Or even worse, escrow that verification to banks and or the government itself, who'd know which porn websites you're accessing.
~~Don't~~ be evil
Be a little bit evil. You know, as a treat.
As a Canadian, I am on Google's side. Unless you hate privacy, and want to use photo ID to access websites. Then when the website is hacked years later, you can have your identity stolen. Or worse.
We already provide way to much personal information online.
Is this good or bad?
A foreign megacorp using their money to try to influence Canadian politics.
Bill s-210 is a privacy nightmare, basically requiring you to give your government-issued photo ID to tech companies.
- everything NSFW you have ever looked up is connected to your real life identity.
- Mega corps often bend to government requests for data
- certain things, like being LGBTQ+, get you jailed or killed in some countries
basically requiring you to give your government-issued photo ID to tech companies.
I remember a time when even your real name was a big deal to hand over on the internet. Then Facebook came along and suddenly it was OK to post any kind of private information.
