Abstract
Never has a text been received with so many requests for amendments; never has the debate around it been so huge.

I state the first as follows: “In the end, what are the major features that cross and justify this regulation? In addition, the second: “Is the regulation adequate for today's digital challenges to our societies and freedoms? The answers given in the following lines express the opinion of their author. It is just an invitation for a dialogue to go forth in this journal where so many excellent reflections have been published on Digital Law, thanks to our common friend: Steve.
