Canada's metadata law threatens Signal DuckDuckGo NordVPN

Signal DuckDuckGo and NordVPN announce they will exit Canada if Bill C-22 passes. The bill requires digital services to retain user metadata for up to one year and provide lawful access to authorities. Signal states its end-to-end encryption and metadata retention policies are incompatible with the law. DuckDuckGo and NordVPN say the law undermines user privacy and trust in their services.
