@evacide I interviewed for a job at one of these companies not knowing what they did until in the interview. Still glad they didn’t want me to work for them

@evacide this is something I need to write a good long letter to my MP about ( here) because we *have* a privacy commissioner at a provincial https://www.ipc.on.ca/ and national level https://www.priv.gc.ca/en/ and this feels like something they just haven't really given a ruling on yet. Its such a big thing in the IT space but I don't think most 'normals' are aware of it at all, or if they are, of the potential implications.
