In Canada, they're pushing for a new bill. This "Lawful Access" bill is basically a bill that allows the government to monitor all your internet activity. Public Safety Minister Vic Toews supports the bill, claiming that anyone who does not want their internet watched is a child pornographer. "You can stand with us, or you can stand with the child pornographers," Toews says. Interestingly enough, someone decided to show Toews how it feels to have no privacy when it comes to your personal information. A new Twitter meme was created in which users shared with Toews every little detail of their lives, and pretty soon the opposite thing happened. There was an anonymous twitter account by the name of "Vikileaks" that was giving away Toews' personal information, such as details about his divorce. Teows has demanded an investigation to find out who is behind this account, and is extremely upset that his information is being leaked without permission.
Here, he even admits that he does not even fully understand the extents of this bill.
