## Topic _(optional)_

Changes can sometimes address several topics at once, making it difficult to narrow the memos down to a clear issue. In such cases, **write separate memos for each topic**. To support splitting, the taxonomy below can help identify topics that each warrant their own memo.
| Privacy and Surveillance | Data collection, use, storage, and retention, informed consent, transparency |
89

| Cybersecurity | Data breaches, security mechanisms, verification and authentication processes |
90
+
| Censorship | Content prohibitions and restrictions, reporting mechanisms |
91
+
| Access and Accessibility | Access to services, discrimination/exclusion risks |
92
+
| Mis/Disinformation | Definitions of false/harmful content, content sharing, verification and reporting mechanisms |
93
+
| Hate Speech | Definitions of violent content, content sharing, reporting mechanisms |
94
+
| Algorithmic Accountability | Data use in AI training |

| Data Sovereignty | Data governance, cross-border data flows |
