The Canadian government is preparing to give away Canadians’ digital lives—to U.S. police, to the Donald Trump administration, and possibly to foreign spy agencies.

Once the VPN has tracking for law enforcement or the government the VPN is trash. Privacy is bullshit and it doesn't actually prevent you from being spied on if they wanted too. I should be able to protect myself from the government especially considering all of the countries now are enshittifying themselves.

Can you point me towards a source for privacy issues with Nord? If they are really tracking users I will want to look elsewhere.
