Several months ago, I wrote a piece on the strange story of clinical trial data in the European Health Data Space (EHDS) proposal and predicted (it was not so hard) that some - perhaps - naively ambitious and unintentionally radical provisions will draw a lot of attention and redrafting.  Well, it happened.

On Thursday 10 March, 87 signatories put forward a proposal for the creation of a multistakeholder body that would discuss and coordinate the imposition of Internet sanctions such as blocking of IP addresses an domain names in times of humanitarian crises. Such sanctions are to be enforced by those entities who choose to subscribe to the principles of the body's manifesto. You can find it here along with the list of the signatories.
