I have a question for Mr. Cesarini. On that issue, if the GDPR directive does not sufficiently address some of the underlying principles or approach in the business model, is the European Commission looking at how the e-commerce directive might provide further support if there is a desire within the European Parliament and Council for that sort of approach? This spring the Spanish data protection agency temporarily banned micro targeting in political advertising, although the decision has been withdrawn pending an appeal. From the European Commission's perspective, has any individual data protection regulator taken action to initiate a ban on micro targeting, whether in political advertising or another sector? Is there a fundamental difficulty with doing that?
