Are Canadians About to Lose Their Privacy? (This is insane) For the first time, the government is proposing a system where your data is collected and stored even if you’ve done nothing wrong. That’s what Bill C-22 is about. I explain what this law really means, why it matters for your privacy, and why Canadians should be paying close attention.

Mert explains why privacy isn't secrecy “Privacy is not secrecy. It is the user having the option and the freedom to disclose their information. If it's mandatory, then it's surveillance. If it's optional, if it's up to the user, then it's freedom” “One good analogy is, you take all sorts of pictures on your phone. Some of those are private. You don't publish all of them on social media but you can publish whatever you want” “You can send messages on Twitter or Facebook or you might send private messages on Signal. Fundamentally, you have to have the choice” “When I pay for a coffee, I don't want my barista knowing I just bought a hair transplant treatment with the same coin" "Privacy is fundamentally about having the option. As long as you have the option, you're in control, it’s up to you what you do with it”
