Toronto VPN provider plans to leave Canada over lawful-access bill

Original: Toronto-Based VPN Provider Plans to Quit Canada over Lawful-Access Bill Article URL: https:// citizenlab.ca/toronto-base

A Toronto-based VPN provider says it plans to leave Canada in response to the government's lawful-access bill, which would expand authorities' ability to demand user data. The Citizen Lab has published an analysis of the company's decision. Discussion is so far limited, with the story drawing modest attention among technology readers debating the bill's privacy implications.

Why now: Privacy advocates are watching how Canada's proposed lawful-access legislation could push tech companies out of the country.
