That is incredibly helpful. I thank Ms Haugen. That will be useful for thinking about things going forward. I want to jump to what Ms Haugen mentioned previously around online safety rules that focus on subject matter in a linguistically diverse world. Can Ms Haugen elaborate a little more on that? It is an interesting point. Linguistic diversity is a global situation. For example, there are words that are used in Northern Ireland that would be considered quite insulting, but in the Republic of Ireland they are not.
