Canada’s privacy laws still fall short in protecting people, as regulators must expand probes into platforms like X over deepfakes and data use, showing weak enforcement and gaps against evolving surveillance risks by companies and government.

The use of AI facial recognition by police should be permitted only with strong legal controls, restricted to major criminal cases, and monitored by independent bodies to prevent violations of privacy and civil rights.

No, it’s not a duty or responsibility of U.S. technology companies they just sell there products only.

No, U.S. is not responsible for this because U.S. companies only make sell there products to others, they are not responsible for telling them how to you that technology. That is the responsibility of that nation who buy that .

Should U.S. tech companies be held accountable for enabling China’s digital surveillance systems used to monitor and suppress citizens?
