Meta is just acting in the way that all big businesses act. Canada wants them to pay for thing, so they just stop using thing. It’s all about money. Canada is the one trying to play the morality card here and basically guilt trip Meta into paying for thing.
To be clear, I do support Canada here, even though the way they implemented this was broken.
But Meta is just doing business (or choosing not to do business in this case).
Canada broke the world wide web. I have no sympathy for that. And AU failed at the same measure, so it was both horrible and unwise.
