Hi @GoranSMilovanovic — apologies for the confusion. I understand that you are intending to remove all informations from countries on the Country Protection List, and was trying to respond to @Manuel's follow-up question, just for the sake of learning: > Just for my understanding: Assuming that individuals were well protected by aggregation alone, would you still recommend the removal of countries from the protection list? As a general rule, sensitive raw data that is aggregated into buckets (like in this instance) is susceptible to re-identification/linkage attacks, regardless of the size of the bucket. Because that is the case, it is hard to formally define what "well protected by aggregation" means for an editor in one of the countries on the protection list.
