- ruthmarx 2y agoI don't think having a state run equivalent is much better from a users perspective. The ability to snoop without warrants would be too great.
- tonyarkles 2y agoMy gut reaction, also as a Canadian, is quite negative to this idea. Are you interested in expanding on the idea? I'm always looking for new perspectives and to understand how my fellow Canadians are looking at issues like this.
- FpUser 2y agoOne of your fellow Canadians really dislikes the idea of control. I also do dislike media being owned by few rich bastards.
- tonyarkles 2y agoIn a lot of ways I think the CRTC is fundamentally ensuring that the "media being owned by a few rich bastards" remains true?
- m00x 2y agoSocial media is already regulated by the CRTC. https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2024/2024-121.htm https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2024/2024-121.htm https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/industr/info.htm https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/industr/info.htm If you're pro C-11, you really don't realize how bad this would be to give the government to determine what is "hate speech" and command companies to take it down.
