   Turdeau's latest lead balloon. By convincing big-tech to shut out Canadian content, and eliminated any means to find it within Canada, he's defacto censored the ability to discover non-government news sources. I think this was the intent.
   
   A quaint little tidbit about who this new BS applies to.

     @toiletpaper @coolboymew Creators can certainly offshore. In fact, I've seen a couple creators openly contemplate this option.

     The one certainty in this situation is that things are going to get bad. The question is just how bad it's going to get. It can be just audiences getting split nationally vs internationally (creators will more often then not choose the latter). Worst case scenario, enough demands tacked on to this compel affected platforms to leave. Significantly messier.

     The easiest thing to do is offshore the hosting and carry on business as usual. Loads of hosting companies accept Monero or other crypto if needed. Fuck the gov't. They're toothless dogs.

     We continue to pay for it to happen...
     Can't complain while that remains true.
