Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives voted to introduce digital IDs for porn users

I trust there won’t be a hack and all that will get leaked.

Does no one remember the Ashley Madison leaks including .gc.ca emails?

They put the office floor plan in the leaks, lol, everyone knows where Bob in accounting sits in the office now… That was 100% an inside job, either a disgruntled employee or someone got a job there with the intent of doing some corporate espionage.

If fucking credit bureaus are leaking my data then yeah, you can’t trust any company to keep your shit safe

To be fair I’d straight up trust the bigger porn companies more than the credit bureaus. They seem to have a much better grasp on technology and somehow manage to seem less sketchy.

Credit bureaus are just data brokers in disguise, so they’re shady, both in concept and by design.

Porn is part of the sex trade, so shady mostly by perception.

I don’t really think it’s possible to do anything more than try to safeguard my personal information. But if forced to choose between those two, I’ll pick a major porn site over a credit bureau every time.

Exactly! However, there are in fact shady porn companies in practice. The difference is:

  • Some porn companies are shady

  • While all credit bureaus are shady

At least with the former you can opt into participation. With credit bureaus you’re automatically being tracked by them unless you live in a tent and pay cash for everything.

Yeah, that’s convincing. Really gonna win people over with that one.

Buddy has clearly not been paying attention to the number of data leaks from literally every company that handles person info. From credit reporting to the government itself.

And you can bet that when that leak would happen, it would come along the entire search and view history for that person.

These dumbfucks have to be saved from digging their own graves as always, because I’m sure the porn they consume is the shadiest.

He knows and his masters are looking to make a fortune by doxxing people for their kinks

He’s not an idiot. He pays attention, and has many smart people around him that push this agenda. The privacy breach is the point.

The real question should be why the conservative party considers it their business what people watch. Aren’t they supposed to be for less government intrusion into your life? Seems they want to have much more control than the liberals and NDP who simply want us to stay out of everyone’s private business.

Thats the thing, even if porn sites try their best to protect your data, breaches are going to happen. It is impossible to say with 100% certaintity that the system has no bugs or exploits. It is impossible to say with 100% certaintity that employess handling the data and servers will not act maliciously.

And he knows they wouldn’t be compromised how?

Because he’s a fortune teller. Or he thinks he is.

Faith. And tactical “oopsies” when the thing that was expected really happens.

What’s on his head?

This guy is a complete tool

Cyber security 101 in the early 2000’s. Rule 1: never expose your true identity. Today: Ron Johnson at 24 Albatross Lane is watching anal porn, again.

I love how everybody was all “NEVER GIVE ANY INFO ONLINE” until corporations realized you could make bonkers money, then it very quickly shifted to “GIVE ALL YOUR INFO ONLINE”

There is entirely too much potential money to be made and too many interested parties to ever say this.

Just wait till someone leaks the freaky shit he’s into.

He should volunteer to provide his info then. Lead by example right?

Because porn sites are known to be serious, trustworthy entities that definitely don’t have a long history of distributing viruses and scammy penis enlargement products, and generally trustworthy ad networks that aren’t spooked out by porn as their source of revenue. They totally wouldn’t sell user data as extra income.

There totally won’t be fake porn sites that needs your credit card and now your ID to verify your age and identity before they show you all those hot chicks in your area.

he’s probably right though, most porn site operators have more integrity than politicians.

The porn companies should together agree that they will create a public record of all conservative politics viewing habits if the bill is passed. This would kill any bills in a millisecond.

This. Seconded. Stop them dead in their tracks!
