It says the move to block news is a response to the bill, which requires tech giants to enter into agreements that compensate Canadian news outlets for content shared or otherwise repurposed on their platforms

They'd rather kill FB & IG than share some ad money. I'll get the popcorn.

It's the right thing to do, and as a Canadian I hope other countries join in. These massive tech companies figure they can just steal content and reap the rewards without sharing.
