    Privacy services tend to be based in European countries because they have stronger data privacy laws and insulation from court orders etc.

      Yes, but we nonetheless do have privacy services in Canada, like 1password and Hushmail. Having weaker privacy laws will make these companies even less competitive.

      Yet it is a German company that is raising attention on bill c-2 instead of Canadian companies.
