IPFS News Link • Police State
The current issue of Toronto Life's cover story is the sad and
perverse tale of Byron Sonne, a Toronto security researcher, hackspace
stalwart, and anarcho-libertarian who decided to show up the security
theatre at play in last year's billion-dollar-plus G20 preparations.
Sonne published extensive accounts of the vulnerabilities in the
preparations, taunting the police and officials who were putting on a
kind of repressive, city-wide puppet show about security, rather than
securing much of anything. Sonne was arrested and spent more than just under a year in jail, being held without bail on a variety of charges, almost all of which have been dropped (his bail conditions are nothing short of Kafkaesque). Sonne's actions seem, on their face,
to be over-the-top and ill-considered (though we haven't heard his side
of things yet), but the Canadian judicial system's response is so
insanely paranoid that it makes Sonne look extremely reasonable by
comparison.
