"Facebook has decided to be unreasonable, irresponsible, and started blocking news."

We appear to be standing our ground!

Not my preferred choice of source but NatPo has more detail than some of the alternatives I saw. It includes some numbers as well as comments about the difference between Meta’s and Google’s approaches. Hint: they’re not the same, so there’s already cracks in the effort to make an example out of Canada.

We could’ve done a bit better… cough TekSavvy sale… cough, but I’ll take what we can get.

Keep that shit on Reddit

CRTC has been useless or even worse, actively harmful, for a long time now unfortunately.

Definitely worse than useless. They allowed ROBeLUS to bankrupt and buy all independent ISPs but TekSavvy. The old chair was a Telus guy. The new one seems a lot better suited to do actual regulation. They are welcome to take action on the TekSavvy sale any day now. 🤭
