I will come in on the question of accountability and transparency in the algorithms, which is key. We are a small country that is trying to enforce accountability on companies. We are trying to deal with the taxonomy of online harms and so on. Does Ms Haugen have a suggestion as to how we might be able to enforce that kind of engineering solution? Does she believe that individual company directors should be held liable if they knowingly mislead regulators?
