Making web giants pay is over. In its place, we’ve got a reversal of the CRTC streaming decision, mandatory metadata retention, a social media ban, and the Privacy Commissioner of Canada no longer enforcing private sector privacy law. What just happened?

Policymakers often face a false choice: preserve security for everyone or break encryption to catch criminals. But law enforcement operates in an era of unprecedented data availability; see the attached chart from our new policy briefs on alternatives to breaking encryption.

Did you know there's a black hole in our galaxy spinning so fast it is almost tearing spacetime apart? This extreme rotation physically pinches off spacetime at the boundary, providing an observational lab to test a wild concept: Holographic Duality. https://t.co/hHMhCiWtfq

Telescopes can't snap pictures of an algebra. But GRS 1915+105 proves this holographic duality conjecture is physical. When theory and observation shake hands, an obscured, space-tearing microquasar is exactly what you need to prove the universe behaves like a fractal hologram.

By looking at this throat, physicists calculated the macroscopic entropy using 4D gravity, and the microscopic entropy using a 2D quantum fluid on the boundary. The math locked together perfectly. The classical gravity and the quantum algebra are identical.

If you're Gen X, chances are you'll find the Masters of the Universe (He-Man) movie entertaining. I caught a late screening, didn't get to bed until 3:00 AM, and I'm still smiling about it.
