Thanks Mirjam. I posted a comment on the website, but I guess it might make 
more sense to share my reaction here:

Is the RIPE NCC response to the Dutch regulator regarding the definition of an 
essential service operator public?

Also, you say, "Data collection restrictions that could hinder the development 
of AI and the IoT."  I think a lot of European citizens would prefer that the 
development of AI and IoT not be at the expense of their personal data becoming 
a private economic resource. Why does the RIPE NCC believe that, "the new 
ePrivacy text ... takes a restrictive approach to metadata and content data 
processing, to the point that the current provisions would have a negative 
impact on the development of things like AI, IoT and big data business.”

Regards,
Mat
