BlameThePeacock ( @BlameThePeacock@lemmy.ca ) English80•4 months agoBuddy 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.
Victor Villas ( @villasv@lemmy.ca ) 24•4 months agoAnd 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.
Szymon ( @Szymon@lemmy.ca ) English7•4 months agoHe’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.

HikingVet ( @HikingVet@lemmy.ca ) 26•4 months agoAnd he knows they wouldn’t be compromised how?
kubica ( @kubica@kbin.social ) 17•4 months agoFaith. And tactical “oopsies” when the thing that was expected really happens.
yeehaw ( @cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca ) 1•4 months agoBecause he’s a fortune teller. Or he thinks he is.
psvrh ( @psvrh@lemmy.ca ) 25•4 months agoI don’t trust people to write secure code.
I really don’t trust people who run low-margin, sketchy businesses like porn sites to write secure code.
That’s the issue.
ILikeBoobies ( @ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca ) 5•4 months agoYou will always be able to find a website not beholden to Canadian law
psvrh ( @psvrh@lemmy.ca ) 5•4 months agoOne of the reasons I don’t run my own webserver, or mailserver any more, or Lemmy/Mastodon instance now, is because I don’t want the liabillity of having to deal with content I don’t control. I’m amazed people run these at all, because it’s trivially easy to end up hosting very problematic content and get the attention of government in truly unpleasant ways.
I cannot imagine anyone anywhere in this chain wants the liability of trying to gatekeep content via ID like this. It’s a technical impossibility, and a liability quagmire.

Hotzilla ( @Hotzilla@sopuli.xyz ) 22•4 months agoThe 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.
Yeah, that’s convincing. Really gonna win people over with that one.
Max-P ( @Max_P@lemmy.max-p.me ) 18•4 months agoBecause 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.
Treczoks ( @Treczoks@lemm.ee ) 17•4 months agoWow. Under what stone has this guy been living since the start of the digital age?
As if any site that stores such data would not be a prime target for hackers for a number of reasons, and as if any site could really defend against a dedicated attack for as long as this law runs.
Kichae ( @Kichae@lemmy.ca ) English5•4 months agoBeing able to out porn viewers is almost certainly the point. I’m sure from their PoV, it’s giving them sources of this info that they can subpoena, but if it all leaks publicly, that gives them what they want, too.
Doubleohdonut ( @Doubleohdonut@lemmy.ca ) 16•4 months agoHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Hey, guys, do you pinkie promise to securely track users with no legal standards or requirements in place? This guy will have shocked Pikachu face in 3, 2, 1, …
trafficnab ( @trafficnab@lemmy.ca ) 7•4 months agoThey know it’s not secure, they’re hoping it will broadly stop (or at the very least, extremely hinder) people from watching porn
Making anything that isn’t missionary position between a married man and woman under the covers with the lights off for the sole purpose of procreation illegal has been a long standing goal of modern conservatives, and they’re currently inching their way there

edric ( @scytale@lemm.ee ) English15•4 months agoHe should volunteer to provide his info then. Lead by example right?
Igloojoe ( @Igloojoe@lemm.ee ) 14•4 months agoThe porn industry is always trustworthy. They NEVER exploit people…

prodigalsorcerer ( @prodigalsorcerer@lemmy.ca ) 12•4 months agoNice to meet you Juan. I’m Pierre Poilivere from Calgary, and I love porn. The weirder the better.
blindsight ( @blindsight@beehaw.org ) 3•4 months agoMy name is Garnett Genuis. I live in Sherwood Park, Alberta, but I travel for work a lot, mostly to Ottawa.
I love asphyxiation porn. I watch it all the time. It’s hard to get enough videos since I’ve watched them all.
