If the US House is preparing to vote on the KIDS Act and KOSA under suspension, that means that they think they have the two-thirds majority to pass the house in a single vote. Under suspension, floor debate will be limited and amendments are prohibited. #KIDSAct #KOSA #privacy #ageverification

The new Chat Control proposal includes mandatory age verification for all online messaging services, including WhatsApp, Signal, iMessage, and Telegram. If you live in the EU, please tell the EP Trilogue Shadows and your MEP to reject Chat Control: fightchatcontrol.eu

The Canadian Senate performed the first reading of Bill C-22 yesterday, and has scheduled the second reading for Monday. sencanada.ca/en/content/s... #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess #canpoli #cdnpoli #canada

About as rough a week for Canadian privacy as I can remember from the government: mandated age verification without privacy review, pushing the Privacy Commissioner out of private sector privacy, and passing lawful access without debate or a recorded vote

An absolutely shameful statement by Steven MacKinnon. Every organization with a long track record of expert commentary on the rule of law in Canada condemned the bill. "Liberals dismiss ‘tinfoil hat’ privacy fears as lawful access bill passes" globalnews.ca/news/1191195...

Canadians, the lobbyists pushing to violate your privacy with mandatory age verification through bill C-34 include: Friends of Canadian Media, along with Jenny Perez and Robin Sherk from Unplugged Canada. #privacy #c34 #ageverification #cdnpoli #canpoli #canada

This gov't can't help stepping on their own rakes as far as privacy and digital policy go.

We joined peers in this late night response to the government's shameful rushing through of #BillC22 - legislation that requires far more committee study than 🇨🇦government allowed. #canpoli iclmg.ca/c-22-motion-... @iclmg-csilc.bsky.social @liguedesdroits.bsky.social @bccla.bsky.social @ifex.org

Hey quick question: what kind of legislation do you rush through in the dead of night, with your MPs unwilling to read out any of the changes they're making or refusing to make? Is it the good kind? The kind that makes us all proud to be 🇨🇦? #BillC22 #canpoli

The Liberals are literally laughing at Rhonda Kirkland, Frank Caputo, and the other MPs for crying over the (hopefully temporary) loss of Canadians' Charter rights.

Where the fuck has the Canadian media been on bill C-22? The Liberals have literally declared war on the Charter and Canadians' privacy. There is world in which any of this is fucking okay. This is one of the darkest days in Canadian parliament's history. MPs are literally fucking crying.

The final SECU Committee on Bill C-22 is now happening after the Liberal motion to debate passed. Committee members now have 28 minutes to debate and decide on all of the 400 remaining amendments. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess parlvu.parl.gc.ca/Harmony/en/P...

The people of Canada all need to see what is being said at this House of Commons meeting from Jenny Kwan, Elizabeth May, Rhonda Kirkland, Claude DeBellefeuille, Martin Champoux, and others have said today about bill C-22. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

The Conservatives, Bloc Québécois, and NDP have all separately called the Liberal Party authoritarian for their actions with Bill C-22. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

Conservative MPs only started filibustering the SECU Committee meetings on bill C-22 after the Liberals made it clear that they did not care about having a real debate.

Sima Acan is calling everyone a liar for pointing out all the issues with bill C-22, and the Liberal attempts to sabotage the committee process. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

Martin Champoux says that countries like the UK have less respect for people's privacy, and suggested that Canada should not copy them with bill C-22. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

Claude DeBellefeuille is says the Liberals never allowed any real debate on bill C-22, because the Liberals had already decided on what they were going to do. She also says that Liberal MPs didn't care what she and others were saying about the bill. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

Claude DeBellefeuille from the Bloc Québécois says bill c-22 is one of the most important bills that she has ever worked on. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

Claude DeBellefeuille from the Bloc Québécois called Kevin Lamoureux a liar for claiming that only the Conservatives are opposed to bill C-22. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

Ryan Turnbull is now complaining about how the Conservatives are trying to stop bill C-22.

Kevin Lamoureux says legislation like C-22 has widespread support across Canada, and is strongly implying its only a minority who is against it. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

Kevin Lamoureux is literally attacking the Conservatives for wanting to protect Canadians' privacy. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

In the House of Commons, Kevin Lamoureux just said opposition to bill C-22 only comes from far right Conservatives. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

Kevin Lamoureux is getting really angry about the opposition to bill C-22 in the House of Commons right now. He says mandatory metadata retention and encryption backdoors are part of the Liberal Platform. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

If law enforcement and RCMP leadership had its way, Canadians would have zero right to privacy. #canpoli #cdnpoli #c22 #encryption #privacy

We need people to start calling Liberal MPs, and demand that they reject bill C-22. If you don't have a Liberal MP pick some on the House of Commons site and start calling them. Don't just send emails. #cdnpoli #canpoli #c22 #lawfulaccess #privacy #encryption #metadata

With Gary Anandasangaree invoking "you're with us or with the criminals" language as the government seeks to shut down debate on Bill C-22, he would do well to remember how Liberal MPs reacted to that approach years ago on a different lawful access bill. bsky.app/profile/mgei...

If bill C-22 passes, we need every organization to refuse to comply and immediately seek an injunction with the Supreme Court. #cdnpoli #canpoli #encryption #privacy

The huge expansion of police powers under Bill C-22 Lawful Access is invariably justified by ref to crimes against children and terrorism. Do they need these powers to investigate someone who falls asleep on a park bench in a national park? If passed, they could. And would.

The law enforcement lobbyists at the #SECU Committee meeting think that the Canadian supreme court's R v Spencer ruling only means they have to pass a law saying privacy violations are acceptable, for them to be acceptable under the Charter. #c22 #lawfulaccess #privacy #encryption #humanrights

If bill C-22 manages to become law, I want the Canadian Supreme Court to permanently strike down mandatory data retention and encryption backdoors. #c22 #privacy

Canadians should not have to rely on the Supreme Court to block bill C-22. Its not a guaranteed win, and it can take over a year for the Supreme Court to rule on bill C-22. Meanwhile Canada and Canadians are going to be irreparably harmed. #c22 #privacy #encryption

For those urging people to contact their MP about bill c-22, that only has a chance of making a difference if your MP is a Liberal. For everyone with a non-Liberal MP, you need to contact other Liberal MPs, and you need to call them over the phone. #C22

The Conservatives, NDP, Bloc Québécois, and Green party are all against part 2 of bill C-22. Everyone else is unified in their opposition, yet Carney has made zero comments about bill C-22 and nowhere to be seen. #c22 #lawfulaccess #cdnpoli #canpoli #encryption #privacy

While the government jams Bill C-22 Lawful Access through Parliament with limited debate, wouldn't it be amusing if @signal.org just cut off Canadian parliamentarians? citizenlab.ca/signal-warns...

@blocquebecoiis.bsky.social Are you going to do anything about the Liberals horrible treatment of your party member Claude DeBellefeuille at the #SECU Committee meeting as they ram through Bill C-22? #c22 #privacy #security #encryption #cdnpoli #canpoli

Claude DeBellefeuille from the Bloc Québécois just gave a passionate speech against bill C-22 at the #SECU committee meeting. She also said that the Liberals lied to her and betrayed her trust. Jacques Ramsey responded by calling her a liar. #c22 #lawfulaccess #cdnpoli #canpoli #encryption #privacy

Claude DeBellefeuille gave a very passionate speech against bill C-22 at the #SECU Committee meeting. She directly calls out the Liberals for lying and forcing the legislation through. #c22 #privacy #encryption #lawfulaccess

Wow. I didn't think things would sink this low. This is definitely Vic Toews level rhetoric. globalnews.ca/news/1190824...

As someone else pointed out, where is the hell TekSavvy? I can't anything about their stance on bill C-22. They are normally extremely vocal on issues like these.

The Canadian media could force Mark Carney to backdown on Bill C-22, if they actually cared about holding him accountable for this unprecedented attack on Canadians' privacy rights. #privacy #c22 #lawfulaccess #cdnpoli #canpoli #encryption

Ramsey is lying at today's #SECU Committee meeting on Bill C-22 when he says that security of Canadians is important to the Liberals. If it was important, encryption backdoors and mandatory data retention would be off the table. #privacy #c22 #lawfulaccess #cdnpoli #canpoli
