Dear working group,

I remain very concerned about the potential negative impact of this
draft on the right to freedom of association, the right to privacy and
the right to freedom of expression.

Even though this was now brought up several times the author does not
seem to want to explicitly address this, which I think is problematic.

Please also see our earlier blogpost on this:

https://www.article19.org/resources.php/resource/38577/en/corporate-actors-must-not-facilitate-human-rights-violations-through-new-chinese-rules

Best,

Niels
