But again, how is that any different to me, as a Canadian, than an American social media company?

All of that is still true.

All the US companies have kissed the ring and are bowing to facsim.

Western social media still has its own agenda. And it’s not human Rights either.

That’s… Not actually a reasonse to what was said?

Sure, that’s all fine and dandy. But it doesn’t change the point that was being made.

The election happened. Here and now, Russia and China tracking me is no different than the US. They’re all authoritarian governments hell bent on stripping rights away.

Now I’m not the same person you replied to. I’m in Canada, so I’m weary of all of them. But if I was in the states, I’d RATHER give my data to an advisory that won’t do much with it. As apposed to the current government hellbent on making life for me and my trans siblings as hard and difficult as possible.
