For now, your encrypted messages have a lock on them.

Only you, and the person you're talking to, hold the key. Not the app. Not the company. Not the government. You probably don't think about it. That's the whole point — it just works.

Until, possibly, the end of this summer. Every messaging app in Canada would be required to build a second key.

With Bill C-22, the government would hold the copy. The lock you trust would no longer be a lock only you can open. It would be a lock the locksmith was ordered to duplicate.

Fuck these pieces of shit and fuck every person who passively supports the slow fucking march to complete enslavement, again.
