What's up with financial sites refusing to delete your account?
  • The answer depends on the country. In the US, review the Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering (AML) regulations. In Canada, there is the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (PCMLTFA) regulations and also the CRA requiring the individuals and businesses retain their records for up to six years.

    if there’s some sort of way around this either with a lawyer or federal form or something.

    Very unlikely.

    Whats your favorite color of light, why?
  • #FF00FF

    In terms of physiology, the color is stimulated in the brain when the eye reports input from short wave blue cone cells along with a sub-sensitivity of the long wave cones which respond secondarily to that same deep blue color, but with little or no input from the middle wave cones. The brain interprets that combination as some hue of magenta or purple, depending on the relative strengths of the cone responses.

    In other words, our brains are like "🤷‍♂️, here's a thing"

    Intel awarded $20 billion by US government, advanced CPUs incoming
  • Without any legal penalties.

    But doing so, would surely risk intels reputation and future contracts with the government. The government could also impose other restriction or penalties on intel for non compliance.

    But like you say, if intel does come up short, likely nothing will happen (unless some form of negligence is discovered)

    'Freedom Convoy' organizer from Sask. suing federal government for using Emergencies Act to freeze accounts
  • Ok, now I'm confused, the article you linked says:

    1. Federal government was justified in using the Emergencies Act

    But in this (OP) article, it says:

    Federal Court Judge Richard Mosley ruled it was unreasonable for the federal government to use the Emergencies Act to quell the protests.

    And then this article says:

    Ottawa has filed to appeal a Federal Court decision that found its invocation of the Emergencies Act in response to the 2022 Freedom Convoy protests was unjustified.

    Anyone out there want to loop me in?

    CRA now allows 2FA apps
  • why is it 30 seconds instead of 60 seconds? I’m pretty sure every other TOTP I’ve seen is 60 seconds. My jaded take: the blind pursuit of “better security” even though… what does this even imply? Someone has 30 fewer seconds to read the code over your shoulder and log in on their device?

    30 seconds is the default for TOTP implementations.

    I’m curious to know what CRA does, but I’m away from my PC right now.

    Yes, you can stop getting SMS messages.

    All I can say on the subject is that if you choose to speak about your views, you should do it with respect to others. You wont change anyones view point by shitting on their beliefs, athiest or otherwise.

    The government has taken the first step to creating a bailout for its disastrous Bill C-18 by agreeing to News Media Canada demands to increase the support under the Labour Journalism Tax Credit. While the current system covers 25% of the journalist costs up to $55,000 per employee (or $13,750), the...

    Of course they would, what a crapshoot.
