Vladimir,
We're all going to extraordinary lengths to slow down the coronavirus pandemic, remaking our entire lives for social distancing. And it seems to be working—so far, Canada has avoided the overwhelmed health-care systems we've seen in Italy and New York.
But now some politicians are talking about using the coronavirus pandemic as an excuse to create vast new government surveillance powers that could last long after the current crisis has passed.
Reporting our movements to our neighbors. Forcing people to send selfies of themselves in their homes to authorities. Breaking into encrypted messages. Throwing out basic judicial oversight. It's already being done in countries like Poland and India, and similar measures are being openly discussed in Canada.
We need effective COVID-19 containment measures, not massive violations of civil rights. Will you donate to help us fight any government power grab to spy on Canadians?

South Korea is using credit card transactions and street cameras to track the movements of patients who have tested positive for the coronavirus. Italy and Israel are using mobile phone data to do the same.1 And Poland is requiring selfies from quarantined citizens on demand within 20 minutes, or they get a visit from the police.2
Right now, Canada and the US are looking into similar measures. Alberta is saying it will produce its own quarantine-enforcement phone app.3
The US Department of Justice has asked for emergency powers to increase surveillance as well as act unilaterally if courts are closed.4 And Prime Minister Trudeau has refused to rule out using cell phone data to track people who are infected.5
It's essential that we stop unnecessary surveillance powers before they are made into law, and ensure that data collection will have limits and be protected. These attacks on our civil liberties are reminiscent of what happened after 9/11 in the US—vast new surveillance powers were put in place as emergency measures to fight terrorism.
The problem is that the threat passed, but the surveillance powers stayed.
OpenMedia has always worked digitally, and we are not slowing down during the coronavirus pandemic. In fact, we're ramping up our campaigns to protect our privacy, including:
Tabling experts and civil-society groups in Canada to build a core-principles document to place strict limits on the misuse of any personal data collected for the purpose of fighting COVID-19.
Organizing against the US Senate's EARN IT Act, a bill that would stop us from being able to use end-to-end encryption without government interference.
Fighting back against Clearview AI's Orwellian facial-recognition and identification tech by asking Canadian municipalities to pass a moratorium on facial-recognition technology.
Pressuring Parliament to stop the Statistics Canada's loose protection of our most personal data.
Holding the Trudeau government accountable to the Digital Charter, which promises to protect our data in ways that are even more important since COVID-19 arrived in Canada.
We can't let the coronavirus be an excuse to destroy our privacy rights. Will you donate to OpenMedia and keep our work going?
Yes, I'll donate today.
