The House of Commons is days from passing Bill S-210, a dangerously broad age verification bill that would put an age lock on most of Canada's Internet and threaten every Canadian’s privacy.

"there's no place for the state in the bedrooms of the nation," Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau.

I know the quote was originally in defense of gay rights but the premise still stands .... the government has no business in knowing what people do in the privacy of their own bedrooms, or home or private space. The governments job is to police and restrict what is illegal and made available online, not in monitoring what people are doing.
