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

Abstract generation in progress
ME News report: On May 15 (UTC+8), privacy messaging app Signal said that if it is forced to comply with Canada’s proposed C-22 Act (the “Legal Access Act”), it may withdraw from the Canadian market. The act requires electronic service providers to develop technical monitoring capabilities and retain some users’ metadata for up to one year to help law enforcement agencies investigate crimes such as terrorism and child exploitation. Signal’s Vice President of Strategy and Global Affairs, Udbhav Tiwari, said the bill could undermine end-to-end encryption, making private communication services more vulnerable to cyberattacks, and that the company would “rather exit Canada” than compromise on its commitments to user privacy. VPN provider Windscribe also said that if C-22 is passed, it would likely follow suit and exit, since VPNs almost certainly need to log users’ identity data. The bill has not yet become law and still requires review by Parliament and royal assent. (Source: PANews)

C-22 Sounds like it's meant to catch bad guys, but is the cost of mass surveillance too high?

Withdrawing from Canada is a loss for users, but a stop-loss for the company—an impossible dilemma.

Do lawmakers think that encryption equals a tool for crime? This understanding is too one-sided.
