In this case, it’s the Canadian government that is evil. Imagine them telling lemmy sites that they had to pay for news? It’s basically the same thing.
It’s a complete destruction of the free and open internet. Canada doesn’t get to declare war on the internet and then cry because Meta responded exactly how they said they would respond.
