the NSA or other intelligence org invented it and provides ongoing funding to collect an enormous library of SHA256 hashes to aid in reducing the decryption space of SHA256 so they can watch people watching porn.
part of the idea is that clicking every ad presented destroys the ad system's ability to do meaningful targetting. I'm happy about that. Without the data collection and analysis performed by Google, Amazon, and Meta, advertising through them is less attractive to advertisors.
Most of the advertisors are lying garbage too. I have no sympathy for them.
AdNauseum. Built on uBlock Origin.
Block all the ads so you never seem them, but click them all so the advertisor pays.
China, India have tiny attempts and smaller successes at influence compared to the thousands of corporate lobbyists that meet with Canadian politicians every year.
What about the influence of the construction industry? Property developers outright own provincial and municipal politics in Ontario. Big tech?
Oil?!?
How about all the huge military and consulting companies that place 50% of the labour in govt workplaces and suck a 25% margin off each one?
Most of those aren't domestically owned either.

enjoy the recessions that come with balanced budgets and surpluses... everyone will be sending in extra taxes to balance that budget.
The Canadian govt is the primary creator of Canadian dollars.
When the federal govt runs a deficit of say $1B, that's a surplus of $1B in the private sector. $1B more spent into industry than collected in taxes. Good times for the private sector.
When the federal govt runs a surplus of $1B, that is a deficit of $1B in the private sector. $1B more collected in taxes than spent. This is an absolute disaster for the economy.
When you consider the above, you can see how ridiculous it is for the federal govt to run a balanced budget or surplus. A balanced budget is a strongly recessionary position, choking off economic growth in the private sector.

instead of a long complicated process to pre-empt corruption, just have an automatic and detailed post-award review for corruption. Corruption discovered in the review is referred for criminal prosecution.
After the first 500 or so corporate CEOs and executives are jailed, the rest will get the point. Offer your best price, compete with your competitors, sell your offer on its merits in the open bid, and stay away from the bid evaluators and other potential or actual bidders.
you never want your heart, liver and cervical spine going into your shoulder...
it's to stop attempts to leave and commit terrorism from lawless jurisdictions. I think it's fairly new and related to the short period of time when ISIS held territory in Syria & Iraq. Odd to see it used for the US, but why not.

The NSA has many kinks. Watching people watch porn, precious bodily fluids/anti-flouride porn, that kind of thing. Good for them.
