for anyone who hasn't been paying attention... C-22 is a terrible idea C-22's architecture is most similar to laws in place in China, Russia, India and Vietnam among allied democracies, the closest analog is Australia's TOLA Act (2018), which Australia is now amending due to the economic harm it caused

Bill C-22 could make Canadians’ sensitive personal data more accessible to foreign governments. @citizenlab’s Kate Robertson explains how: thewalrus.ca/trump-wants-to…

Actually, Bill C-22 is so sweeping that it could give government the power to make tech companies add state-run hardware to their products or networks.

(1/2) Part 2 of Bill C-22 does not create new authorities, such as surveillance powers, for law enforcement and CSIS. It ensures that electronic service providers are able to respond to lawful access requests from law enforcement and CSIS.

Another argument against C-22 is coming to the fore: “The most effective way to reduce risk is therefore to limit the amount of sensitive data that is collected and retained, and to ensure that retention periods are no longer than necessary.”

Great to see @Shopify raising concerns about the overbroad scope of Bill C-22. Lawful access powers need clear limits and strong safeguards. Important coverage of @tobi and @LiboiM in @the_logic: thelogic.co/briefing/liber…

Pollievre calls out the CRTC's recent decisions: "This will be a consumer tax, it will all be passed on. Let's not be naive and pretend that the web giants or the streamers are just going to absorb it. Of course they're going to make Canadians pay more." cbc.ca/news/politics/…

Bill C-22’s “scope could mean requiring companies to install spy tools into mobile devices, social media and messaging apps, cloud-storage services, video game platforms, smart home devices, live video camera networks, or health and fitness trackers” x.com/KateRobertson_…

NEW today an essay from me in @TheWalrus on Bill C-22 (being rushed through committee in Canada this May), its implications for Can-US negotiations on data-sharing, and why the rule of law threats unfolding in the US may soon become Canada's problem too. thewalrus.ca/trump-wants-to…

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: if you care about digital sovereignty, you should be worried about Bill C-22. Great piece from @KateRobertson_ in @thewalrus on how Bill C-22 makes us vulnerable to foreign data requests: thewalrus.ca/trump-wants-to…
