I saw it coming years ago.
The Royal Bank recently denied a mortgage to Rebel News because of their politics.
About ten years ago, the MTO refused to provide me with a license sticker because my proof of insurance had not been added to the IBC database, even though I had the pink slip right in my hand. The clerk was powerless to do anything. She said, "I can't print your form until it's in the computer."
Even back in the 1990s, the US government was strong-arming credit card companies into refusing to facilitate internet tobacco transactions. In Canada, a short while later, my credit cards stopped working when I tried, legally, to order Marlboros from that company, YesSmoke in Switzerland.
The trajectory was obvious. All it required was for the technology to catch up.
Add a little GangGreen to the mix, and you will find the same thing happening when you try to buy a quarter-pounder.
And have you ever wondered why Uber was able to break so many laws with impunity?
