A trojan horse for digital ID. This will work in conjunction with the rest of this dystopian level legislation to ensure that they can identify those guilty of wrong think. This is really happening Canada. We either wake up and resist this with the fury of a people pushed too far. Or we lose it all.

See the pattern yet? Note how it’s always for “safety” and “protecting children”.
There’s more I could list if this isn’t enough to at least make you stop and think “what is the end goal here?”
Bill C-34 creates a social media ban for Canadians under 16 at the expense of all Canadians' privacy.
Sections 26, 27(1), and 27(2) of Bill C-34 require that affected social media platforms “implement age-verification and age-estimation measures designed to prevent a person under the age of 16 from being able to have an account with, or be otherwise registered with,” those social media platforms.
Bill C-34 requires that such measures must provide for the “protection” and eventual “destruction” of “personal information that is collected for age-verification or age-estimation purposes.”
It is not yet clear how this will be accomplished. What is clear is that these measures must be “effective.” Users commonly verify their age by submitting government-issued identification documents, such as driver’s licenses or passports. And, the technology exists for social media platforms to estimate the ages of users through biometric data, e.g., facial geometry, eye shape, skin elasticity, hairline, etcetera.
This age-verification and age-estimation monitoring will not be limited to Canadians under age 16. For social media platforms to determine access eligibility for any user, platforms will have to evaluate the access eligibility of every user.
The goal of Bill C-34 is not merely to remove Canadians under age 16 from affected social media platforms but to keep them off those platforms. To achieve this goal, social media platforms may be compelled to adopt ongoing age-verification/estimation measures to ensure continued compliance.
However affected social media platforms satisfy these requirements, Bill C-34 fundamentally reimagines how all Canadians access social media.
This Bill deputizes affected social media platforms into forcing Canadians to surrender more data as a precondition of participation in the digital public square. This, in turn, raises serious concerns about Canadians' privacy rights and may engage constitutional protections against unreasonable search and seizure - guaranteed by section 8 of the Charter.

@nyaqueef Bruh it took me like 7h and I have all 3 endings, even went back to read some lines. It can also be bought for like a bag of Doritos often and indeed super short..
Today at 3:30 p.m. ET, encrypted messaging app company Signal will testify before a Parliamentary committee in opposition to the federal government’s proposed state surveillance legislation. Bill C-22 will undermine your right to communicate privately with others and may even drive Signal - and other tech companies - out of the Canadian market altogether.
Take action today: contact your MP and tell them to stop Bill C-22

@HellsHathAngel@CVosTalkerman@mario4thenorth From other intruders taking a piece of that cake as well. They say it’s for lawful purposes, but what stops them from being unlawful? You pass by a crime scene unaware and suddenly you are being spied on by cops, theres multitudes of ways how this will compromise you
@HellsHathAngel@CVosTalkerman@mario4thenorth Adding government-level backdoors in every single service, device and infrastructure WILL compromise the security and privacy of all Canadians, no matter how you look at it, whether it’s lawful or not. It’s a security risk. Not because it’s government-level that we’ll be safe-
@HellsHathAngel@CVosTalkerman@mario4thenorth “painting everyone with differing skin colour than yours as pre determined criminals” were you targeting that toward me? Very baseless accusations. I know there is injustice in the world but not everyone’s in the same basket. Spyware in all devices should not exist PERIOD. It’s-
@HellsHathAngel@CVosTalkerman@mario4thenorth (2) on the internet. I’m not being insensitive to those that have had their child groomed, but some of them just DID NOT do anything to let that not happen in the first place. It’s about safety, if governments have to step in, then that’s on the people. We failed basic safety
@HellsHathAngel@CVosTalkerman@mario4thenorth (1) I’m free-minded, not a conservative or whatever else you think I am, child predators are absolutely an issue yes, but then again, compromise an entire country’s privacy to arrest those people? It’s the parents’ jobs. Maybe don’t lend a child an iPad and let them roam freely-
@Colinth22@Drtre81 Oh I’m aware, it was more of a jab at how old my components are, I’m last gen lol
Indie games are my main target most of the time so the performance isn’t the biggest worry most of the time
