mastodon 4.5.18Hi! I'm Jamie, a first-year law student and computerist.
My goal in life is to reduce government overreach, protect marginalised groups, decrease corporate influence, and ensure laws are applied in an equal and judicious manner, consistent with the principles of fundamental justice.
In my free time, I like to work on my projects and cry at home.

@grammargirl@zirk.us I would have hoped for injunctive relief as in this case, damages are clearly insufficient, but I guess it's better than nothing.
Clearview AI, a shitty American company that goes around scraping the internet for pictures of people so cops can identify people in pictures, loses second appeal in bid to overturn OIPC order to exit BC and delete information pertaining to BC residents.

Bill C-22 will allow the Canadian government to demand, in secret, backdoors in certain computer networks. This is extremely dangerous and just a shitty spin-off from the disgraced Bill C-2 with minimal, half-heated, and grossly insufficent improvements.
