Twitter or X or whatever you call it Ignored me again, when I threatened to respond with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).
I may be stupid, but I'm an idiot with AI, MC (Microsoft Copilot) & together will take action, Ignore the law. -
Bethesda.net refuses to modernize their system, there is no way to clear tickets closed or irrelevant.
As a Canadian I must use PIPEDA to legally clear tickets "It Just Works".
They refuse, & I take it to the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
That’s the system they built. -

Hey Canadians: if you've ever used #UFile, and you haven't switched away yet, it's time to do so. And use #PIPEDA to get your data deleted from UFile.
Replacement options, in no particular order:
- WealthSimple
- CloudTax
- StudioTax
- GenuTax

I requested my medical data from the platform that holds it by issuing a privacy request. They shared it... on Google Drive.
The platform's privacy office violated #PIPEDA to comply with a PIPEDA request.

Everyone thinks privacy apps are the same regardless of where they're hosted. They're wrong.
Most virtual number providers are American companies operating under US data laws. WIGGWIGG is Canadian-incorporated, governed by PIPEDA.
Plus: bilingual support, CAD pricing, local area codes.
Where it's built matters. https://wiggwigg.ca/en/compare/

OTTAWA - The Privacy Commissioner of Canada today held a press conference regarding the digital attack on Telus Canada's networks and information systems. Telus recently announced that attackers had claimed to have exfiltrated nearly 1 petabyte of company data, including customer data, equivalent to approximately 250,000 DVD movies.
The Commissioner announced a full investigation will take place. He also indicated that Canadian consumers should not be excessively worried about the breach of their personally identifiable information (PII), as the attackers will still be obligated to follow the requirements of the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), Canada's data privacy law since passage in 2000.

Then, a couple of months later, I get spam from a seller trying to get me to buy knockoff designer handbags, or a Nigerian prince trying to secret his fortune away, or something else odious.
But look -- the email was sent to the address "[email protected]"!
Now I know, with absolute certainty, that this spammer got my address, directly or indirectly, from Crappy Tire. Maybe they sold their mailing list far and wide. Maybe their systems were hacked and every customer's email was exfiltrated.
I can now take action. If I think they sold my address, I can write a nastygram referencing their privacy policy or Canada's PIPEDA act, or Europe's GDPR, or whatever. If I think my address was stolen from their systems, I can report the security incident to them, or publicize it so others know it may have happened to them.
And most importantly, I can disable that email address. Just refuse all mail sent to it. It's no longer of use to spammers or crooks. If I ever deal with Crappy Tire again, I give them a new unique address.
Anyway, that's a lot of backstory. I use this technique extensively. I have caught many, many companies selling/renting their mailing lists in violation of their own policies. I have caught many others that have been hacked, and they didn't even know it.
So what's the thing that happens to me occasionally regarding this?

3/4 – 📊 C-27 et la protection des données
C-27 devait moderniser la législation sur les données personnelles (PIPEDA) et intégrer une régulation souple de l’IA.
👉 Objectif : se rapprocher du RGPD, souvent plébicité au Canada pour sa rigueur technique et sa vision innovante.
Mais l'échec de C-27 laisse le cadre canadien obsolète, loin des standards européens. -
It irks me for as much as America complains about China, China has actual data protection laws, whilst Americans keep having their most sensitive data leaked in breaches. Then Politicians in the USA get pissed off at China for wanting to protect their citizens.
Look China may not be perfect and has their own set of issues but this is one Area they are clearly ahead of the USA on.
Canada, EU, South Africa all have data rights too

10 Things That Were A Thing When Canada’s Last Privacy Law Received Royal Assent
Canada’s current privacy laws are a joke and horribly outdated. How outdated? We thought we’d highlight what people had back then.
