Thank you, Mr. Co-Chair.
I come from a country or region where it was once said—or it's still being said, I suppose—that when the first world sneezes we catch a cold. We never understood or we never knew.... We participated in Facebook on their platforms, but until the 2016 American election, we never knew what effect they were having on us. That's when we got to know about Cambridge Analytica and the other platforms' involvement in our own domestic elections.
We being untouched territory, so to speak, what advice would you have for us in our region as to how we protect ourselves moving forward? It almost seems like the first world has the plague. We do not want to catch it. How would you suggest we go about protecting ourselves?
