Of COURSE it's Telus!

Rogers is fucking awful. Bell is worse. But only Telus is this eager to abuse its customers' privacy.

And they're a growing player in the for-profit healthcare industry. Wonderful.

Isn't Telus owned by Bell now or some shit like that?

Also, didn't Telus cut service for a bunch of fire fighters in the middle of a really bad forest fire out west like 10-15 years ago? I'm vaguely remember something like that, but I could be wrong.

They share infrastructure because they use the same kind of signal

The forest fire thing was more recent than that or maybe it's just that it happened again?

May have been more recent... My timeline is totally fucked up from the COVID blur lol

That's not far off from Andrew Wakefield giving children scraps for their blood.
