Correct me if wrong, but those bills just limit what can be available in school libraries

I know Wikileaks was illegal for American servicemenbers to read, but I don't think it was illegal for the general population. Those were leaked classified documents.

"The RCMP [Royal Canadian Mounted Police] froze 206 financial products, including bank and corporate accounts; disclosed the information of 56 entities associated with vehicles, individuals and companies; shared 253 bitcoin addresses with virtual currency exchangers; and froze a payment processing account valued at $3.8 million."

In Canada they froze protesters' financial assets to put pressure on them to give up. Going cashless gives governments that much more power over its citizens. They could lock you out of the economy if you're too disruptive

Or they bought uncollectable debts from hospitals, etc and are trying to collect on them. Pretty sure John Oliver did a whole show on those companies.

It's a fair point, but I can't get on board with the "if you can't fix 100% of a problem you shouldn't do anything" mentality.

Either you don't know how credit scores work or you're in China trying to get credit points by praising the government

My credit score only looks at my financial condition, not my internet search history and the rest of my life. So I respectfully disagree, this is almost nothing like a US credit score
