Signal hints at possibly exiting Canada due to the "Legal Access Act"

Abstract generation in progress
ME News Report, May 15 (UTC+8), privacy messaging app Signal stated that if it is forced to comply with Canada's proposed C-22 Act ("Legal Access Act"), it may withdraw from the Canadian market. The bill requires electronic service providers to establish technical monitoring capabilities and retain some user metadata for up to one year to assist law enforcement investigations into crimes such as terrorism and child exploitation. Signal's Vice President of Strategy and Global Affairs Udbhav Tiwari said that the bill could threaten end-to-end encryption, making private communication services vulnerable to cyberattacks, and the company "would rather exit Canada" than compromise on user privacy commitments. VPN provider Windscribe also stated that if C-22 passes, they will likely follow suit and exit, as VPNs almost certainly need to log user identity data. The bill has not yet become law and still requires approval from Parliament and royal assent. (Source: PANews)

The balance between privacy and security is a well-worn topic, but forcing the retention of metadata clearly leans too heavily toward compromising privacy.

Can the parliamentary review be delayed a bit, giving the tech community some time to lobby?
