If anyone needed more proof that the police launched a comprehensive monitoring network through social media networks, here's a story to add to the unfortunate avalanche.
Wednesday evening, the news that "a supporter of the student movement," 20 years, Jennifer Pawluck was arrested in Montreal for publishing an Instagram photo taken from a pulp wheat graffiti illustration showing the police commander Ian Lafreniere of Montreal, with a bullet hole in the bloody forehead. According to the CBC, the image was thrown into a brick wall in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve district. And Jennifer Pawluck not this same material, not even call the police anti-graphic in the first place.
More details on the website indicate that the Montreal police CBC actively monitor Instagram, or, more likely, his new best friend, Facebook.
So it was not a case of Pawluck taking pictures of graffiti and approached an officer. It would be a photo posted available online and attributed to Pawluck. The aspect of monitoring is quite disturbing, but the Montreal police went further, accusing Pawluck "criminal harassment against a police officer of high rank in Montreal." While on a photo of the artwork that create (or applied to a wall).
The image represents the Montreal police commander Ian Lafreniere with a bullet hole in the head. Lafreniere was a bit of a lightning rod during the unrest last year in Montreal, due to his position as Chief of the Division of Communications. While the image is violent and could be perceived as a threat, posting a photo of graffiti on Instagram is just "harassment" itself. As Vice Article points out, there were many more photos of this work of art, to publish on Instagram.
Police (unsurprisingly) were less than honest about the reasons Pawluck should be questioned for "several hours" on the picture. This is what the Ministry
made
have to say:
spokesman Const. Dany Richer said concern extends beyond the publication of the photo, but said he could not go into more detail.
