Top Story
- I noticed this too. Apart from the usual propaganda outlets like the CBC and the mainstream Canadian press, there's a huge amount of bot activity supporting police brutality against peaceful protestors.

Tech News

- Clearview AI aims to have 100 billion facial photos in its database within a year. (Washington Post / MSN)

Ran into one "Not a Canadian Bot" who apparently puts in 16 hour days commenting almost exclusively about the Truckers and has been demanding police violence almost since the start of the protest.

Twitterland is normal, and also a credible source of information about real world opinions.
