@hoco @danneau @zazzoo @pluralistic It's bad enough when big tech oligopolies enforce their oligopolies through their own shitty practices.
It's another thing when laws end up defacto entrenching big tech oligopolies in the name of going after big tech oligopolies.
It's quite sad because the Manitoba provincial government did a good thing on surveillance pricing, but this is a horrible thing.

@hoco @danneau @zazzoo @pluralistic When you're doing something good, I'm going to say so. But when you're doing something bad, I'm also going to say so. Much of the goodwill the Manitoba government got from the ban on surveillance pricing, it's throwing out the window on age verification.
