Conservative MP challenges Tim Hortons over firings of Canadian workers!

Carney’s new plan to battle the internet; whatever it may be, because details are apparently for peasants, would revive a long-dead Liberal Party obsession: regulating online speech in a country that still pretends to value free expression. It’s an effort so cursed, it’s been killed more times than Jason Voorhees. First, there was Bill C-36, which flopped in 2021. Then came its undead cousin, Bill C-63, awkwardly titled the Online Harms Act, which proposed giving the Canadian Human Rights Commission the power to act as digital inquisitors, sniffing out content that “foments detestation or vilification.” Naturally, it died too, not from public support, but because Parliament decided it had better things to do, like not passing it in time. But as every horror franchise teaches us, the villain never stays away for long. Carney’s speech didn’t include specifics, which is usually code for “we’ll make it up later,” but the intent is clear: the Liberals are once again oiling up the guillotine of speech regulation, ready to let it fall on anything remotely edgy, impolite, or, God forbid, unpopular. https://reclaimthenet.org/mark-carney-online-speech-crackdown-liberal-censorship-canada

More and more sports franchises are playing ball with biometric ticketing options for fans. Major League Baseball (MLB) and European soccer leagues have thus far led the way. The NFL is the latest major sports league to get on side with biometric ticketing. Wicket will provide league-wide digital credentialing and computer vision for biometric gate systems to be deployed in the upcoming season. In the Belgian Pro League, the Planet Group Arena (formerly Ghelamco Arena) in Ghent ran a trial of palm-based ticketing with Perfect ID and palm vein biometrics firm Palmki. Likewise, Veridas has provided biometric access control systems at El Sadar stadium in Spain, currently home to La Liga’s Osasuna football club. Italy’s Lega Serie A has plans to implement facial recognition at all of its clubs’ stadiums. https://www.biometricupdate.com/202406/biometric-ticketing-a-hit-with-major-sports-leagues

CNBC reports on an email memo sent to franchisees announcing its plan to halt AOT at all 100 McDonald’s drive-throughs using it by July 26, 2024. https://www.biometricupdate.com/202406/mcdonalds-pauses-ai-voice-ordering-system-developed-with-ibm
