The Canadian government is planning
to introduce a bill on Wednesday, June 10th, to mandate identity surveillance of every adult using social media in Canada! 👁️‍🗨️

https://globalnews.ca/news/11894610/canada-social-media-ban-teens-online-harms-bill/

A ban on social media for children
does nothing to reduce the harm caused by commercial social media. Instead, it means mandatory ID scans for every adult using social media.

We must stop this authoritarian proposal,
and demand our government focuses instead on reducing the harm for everyone using social media.

It has been explained by experts over and over that bans of social media are shortsighted lazy measures that do not help in the end, but in fact harm everyone, including the children.

Stop ID surveillance in Canada! ✊⛔️

1/ Today, the European Commission presented the so-called #TechSovereigntyPackage after months of delay.

👎 Despite a very welcome EU #OpenSourceStrategy, the overall package is a lost opportunity built on a corporate lobbying narrative: the legal rules created to protect our rights are considered to be a barrier to the EU’s “competitiveness” and, as such, “sovereignty.”
