@folkrav is right here

And I’ll posit that you likely wouldn’t like this ability to exist in the first place.

Let me walk you through a thought experiment. Any system that requires a verification step is likely tied to identity and putting up a gate to get in based on the identity or using it to get a token to access it ties you to that activity. Ok great let’s not let the kids see porn, but the exact same approach can be used to prevent or put a chilling effect on people seeking lgbt content, anti Vax content, unionization information,church gatherings, crypto schemes,academic research, Israel, Palestine, or anything really.

The internet was never intended to be a secure place it was intended to survive a devastating nuclear attack and keep information flowing. Tacking on arbitrary mortality gates is Orwellian and not how the internet was designed to function. Maybe these guys need to a seperate network (without blackjack and hookers) just for the content you want kids to see and not tell them about the internet till later because these proposed measures are like outlawing the letter q because you don’t like that it leads to the word question.

Ah just don’t renew station licenses or make the liscences more expensive and offer reductions on this new license hike if news broadcasts are locally produced and at noon six pm and 11 pm

Honestly thank you I’m starting to get old and cranky about the acronym issue.

Ok what the fuck is SM sadomasochism? Cause I read the article checked the thread and there are no definitions or context clues…

Now a large portion of the audience will read your comments coming with my flawed conclusions. And it’s at least somewhat funny

Define acronyms For Fucks Sake (FFS)

ah so that priority email i got from bell who got it from CCCS about my personal gitlab server being vulnerable was extraordinary,

BTW if you haven’t got it update it it scored a 10 on the CVSS https://www.cyber.gc.ca/en/alerts-advisories/vulnerability-impacting-gitlab-cve-2023-7028

It would be funny if people just sent a letter to their mp every time they accessed those sites something like:

Dear honorable insert MP name

In advance of bill S-210 I am writing to inform you of my internet usage habits what follows is a list of hyperlinks to videos I have accessed today:

3. …

I hope this information helps you in determining my sexual interests to aid in your reelection campaign.

Sincerely xyz ABC of qwerty riding

And in the smallest print capable of your printer ( if you would like to unsubscribe from this mailing list please consider your vote on this matter)

No it’s not paranoia if they are actually out to get you.

If they are out to get us it’s just baffling to me. The internet was originally designed as a communications tool to survive large parts being damaged in the event of a major disaster/attack.

It got hijacked by people first who used it to share less and scientific information and more for the lack of a better word human information. Then corporations came and wanted to extract value from it some how. So we had the Dotcom bubbles and pop-up ads.

Now I don’t have the hindsight now to succinctly explain what happened next but then Facebook became a dominant social media platform. And everyone gave them info about themselves contrary to the previous advice about never using your real name on the internet.

Now we have governments world wide actively trying to police porn a good 50 years after it existed on the internet. 20 years since it was freely and widely available as streaming video? What’s the goal trying to tax free porn somehow?

I think the genie is out of the bottle at this point.

It’s wild because back in the day they told us don’t let anyone know your real name or where you live if you can help it. Now it’s let’s see your driver’s license to verify you before you can look at cat videos…

But how much of this is actually new trying to build a world order and how much is just ignorance in the capabilities of the technology of the members of the Senate and House of Commons

Ok I don’t understand this push to block porn at a country wide level.

Who wants this and why?

I honestly don’t see why. Most to the time they tell you follow the money but I can’t think how blocking porn helps anyone but VPN providers, and old school porno mag and video publishers.

Maybe this is a fundamentalist puritanical thing? But how is it getting such wide support? Are there that many but hurt virgins in the Senate and House of Commons?

Argh so many questions and this feels so absurd.

Probably just want to play one of those heritage minutes videos before you start a video.

Yea that’s from the Quebec branch and from 3 years ago. I think that’s been resolved after all that time

Ah as retaliation we should just ask the CRTC to crack down on telemarketers from India. Or just shut down the lines from India for a week for maintenance…

Hmm linked to the Rogers outage reported earlier?

Wow that’s horrible! I quit and pointed all the facebook domains I could find to 0.0.0.0 when it came out they were experimenting on users in the first place. Pushing that sort of content to empty or cleared out profiles is insane.
