CBC’s prediction isn’t worth much when we have precedent that says otherwise.

Is there any indication whatsoever that Facebook is willing to enter into negotiations with the government over this? If there is, I missed it.

There are those who learn from history and those who are doomed to repeat it.

Facebook is a corporation. Corporations operate for profit.

If negotiating would lead to continued profit they will negotiate.

Always good to interact with your peers.
