And 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.
Thats the thing, even if porn sites try their best to protect your data, breaches are going to happen. It is impossible to say with 100% certaintity that the system has no bugs or exploits. It is impossible to say with 100% certaintity that employess handling the data and servers will not act maliciously.
He knows and his masters are looking to make a fortune by doxxing people for their kinks
He’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.
If fucking credit bureaus are leaking my data then yeah, you can’t trust any company to keep your shit safe
To be fair I’d straight up trust the bigger porn companies more than the credit bureaus. They seem to have a much better grasp on technology and somehow manage to seem less sketchy.
Credit bureaus are just data brokers in disguise, so they’re shady, both in concept and by design.
Porn is part of the sex trade, so shady mostly by perception.
I don’t really think it’s possible to do anything more than try to safeguard my personal information. But if forced to choose between those two, I’ll pick a major porn site over a credit bureau every time.
Exactly! However, there are in fact shady porn companies in practice. The difference is:
-
Some porn companies are shady
-
While all credit bureaus are shady
At least with the former you can opt into participation. With credit bureaus you’re automatically being tracked by them unless you live in a tent and pay cash for everything.

Cyber security 101 in the early 2000’s. Rule 1: never expose your true identity. Today: Ron Johnson at 24 Albatross Lane is watching anal porn, again.
I love how everybody was all “NEVER GIVE ANY INFO ONLINE” until corporations realized you could make bonkers money, then it very quickly shifted to “GIVE ALL YOUR INFO ONLINE”
Does no one remember the Ashley Madison leaks including .gc.ca emails?
They put the office floor plan in the leaks, lol, everyone knows where Bob in accounting sits in the office now… That was 100% an inside job, either a disgruntled employee or someone got a job there with the intent of doing some corporate espionage.
The 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.
This. Seconded. Stop them dead in their tracks!
I 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.
You will always be able to find a website not beholden to Canadian law
One 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.
Hahahahahahaha hahahahahahaha hahahahahahaha
how is this not the top comment
And he knows they wouldn’t be compromised how?
Faith. And tactical “oopsies” when the thing that was expected really happens.
Because he’s a fortune teller. Or he thinks he is.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
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, …
They 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
Because 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.
Yeah, that’s convincing. Really gonna win people over with that one.
The porn industry is always trustworthy. They NEVER exploit people…
So hey Pierre.
I’m no fan of the LPC from a long time back. But you are convincing me that a Conservative majority will be a shitshow.
You might just snatch defeat from the jaws of victory with this braindead stupidity.
Let’s hope they do. They are a dumpster fire. I’m fine with perpetual minority governments with NDP Liberal and Green coalitions or supply and confidence agreement. Give me electoral reform damn it.
But surely someone must think of the children!
Wow. 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.
Being 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.
He should volunteer to provide his info then. Lead by example right?
