Life is a preposterous horror.
Money speaks for money, the devil for his own
Who comes to speak for the skin and the bone?
The law locks up the man or woman
Who steals the goose off the common
But leaves the greater villain loose
Who steals the common from the goose.
Une oasis d'horreur dans un désert d'ennui.

The purpose of a thing is what it does; in this case, the new measure makes burner phones illegal. If you think this is an unintended consequence of a well intended attempt to deal with robocall spam, I have a bridge to sell you.

I can think of a time in American history when the president owned human beings, that he worked to death and occasionally practiced bloodletting on, and also women couldn't vote. Or men who didn't own property.
I'm getting sick and tired of people saying, "It's Chinese, they will spy on you"
The fucking reality is even nation on this planet and that other planet are all spying on us all

Bill C-22 (part 1), there is a lot of unnecessary & troubling shit in there:
1) allowing police to use PII voluntarily provided without a court order (provided by who, m*f*ker?) and
2) obtain & use publicly available PII without a court order. (LO can scrape & model public info to build dossiers on every Canadian, just in case)
The repeated phrase "reasonable suspicion that a crime has been *or will be* committed" is terrifying. Reasonable to who, m*f*ker?
Did you know that the number of medical students is an artificial scarcity that can be fixed in a year? Boom, you double them. It's done. Triple them? Boom, done.
Someone just has to do it.
Let's build some pipelines and AI data centres instead.
