      This is great news for Canadians, meaning they’ll be free from dragnet surveilance, as the five eyes monitoring system relies on other countries to spy on their citizens for them as a legal loophole.

      Way to go trump, keep going, dismantle the five eyes entirely.

          Huh? The other 4 can still spy on Canadians. They just won’t share the info with Canada.

              So Canadian citizens are safe from prosecution then by their own government.

                  They can and will be prosecuted through legal means. As for illegal means, if it’s a big enough deal you can bet the other 4 countries will accidentally leak the info.

              First, US wanted UK out of five eyes. Now Canada. Pretty soon, it’ll be one eye.

                  I could have sworn I saw UK too, but can’t find it anymore.

                    yep, the united states is the brown eye of the world

                    The US should be axed from the alliance at this point, honestly. No intel shared with us can be trusted to be secret, even to our ‘enemies’.

                    A community for discussing events around the World

                    Rules:

                    • Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:

                      • Post news articles only
                      • Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
                      • Title must match the article headline
                      • Not United States Internal News
                      • Recent (Past 30 Days)
                      • Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
                    • Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think “Is this fair use?”, it probably isn’t. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

                    • Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.

                    • Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.

                    • Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19

                    • Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.

                    Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

                    • Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

                    • Rule 7: We didn’t USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you’re posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

                    We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

                    All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
