@flareapp Hi, I appreciate you taking the time to respond, but you clearly did not understand my first question. On Twitter, BlueSky, and Mastodon, when I click on a post, I am able to view quotes of that posts. Why can't I do that with flare? See screenshots.

I just emailed a strongly worded letter
to my government representative to oppose Bill C-22.

If you are Canadian, you should too: https://action.openmedia.org/page/188754/action/1

Stop the Surveillance State: Stop Bill C-22!

🚨 Bill C-22 forces every Canadian internet provider, messaging app & cloud service to build surveillance backdoors and store a year of your data. Foreign state hackers exploited similar legislation in the US. Shut the backdoor: https://openmedia.org/StopC22 #BillC22

Canada’s Bill C-22 Is a Repackaged Version of Last Year’s Surveillance Nightmare

Last year, the Canadian government pushed Bill C-2, which would erode Canadian digital rights in the name of “border security.” The bill was so bad it didn’t even make it to committee because of the backlash from the privacy community. Now, the spring’s worst sequel, Bill C-22, aka The Lawful Access Act, is trying it again.

BREAKING: Signal, the #1 privacy protecting messaging app many of us rely on, is saying they will pull out of 🇨🇦 ENTIRELY if they're scoped into #BillC22 without large changes.

This should be our final alarm bell: we can have digital privacy or we can have legislation this broad and broken, not both!

"Don't worry this won't be anything like Covid" Well I AM worried because the common running theme is to deny airborne transmission & fail to advise respirators. What I'm worried about is that we've learned nothing & what this means for all pathogens down the road

In my year at Privacy Guides:

📰 I wrote 28 articles, including some long-form investigative essays.

✊ I designed and developed an entirely new section for the website, with long-term plans to develop it further.

🧰 I wrote 25 short tip-articles for the first tool of this new section, the Privacy Activist Toolbox.

📗 I researched and put together a directory of Data Protection Authorities worldwide (including 89 regions), to facilitate public access to report privacy violations of their local privacy laws.

👕 I created 4 designs for the merchandise store, including an elaborated unique vector line illustration.

🗣️ I wrote over 100 social media posts to promote our projects, articles, and videos.

💛 I engaged with our community to answer questions and provide resources.

If you want me to do the same for your organization, I'm currently available for a new opportunity!
