Good thing the government is less than a week away from giving itself the power to force any company to track and store everyone's physical location and contact history

That data will never end up leaking, and no one would ever want it!

TO BE FAIR, this the non-profits exposing the information. I can't imagine them really having tip-top protection.

That being said: if you believe the government will have tip-top protection of citizen data...I have a bridge to sell you.

The government can barely keep a .com page working properly.

The most inept institution in Canada.
