I thank Ms Haugen. I am going to squeeze in one more question in the ten seconds I have left, if that is okay with the Chair. This atmosphere and approach have led to a situation where, as we have already said, partisan pages and organisations have exploited it to a point where many people have trouble distinguishing factual and non-partisan material from that which is partisan and non-factual. This is the point of us having Ms Haugen before the committee today. What legislative and algorithmic changes would she recommend to ensure this does not happen again and we hit this on the head?
