Problem #6
A few foreign corporations (Meta, X, TikTok) decide what their algorithms show millions of users. The state and the end user today have practically no influence, so these corporations can influence citizens' opinions.

The state (administration & politics) must not influence the opinions of citizens, because citizens are the state and they should influence the state.
Just as the large tech and media conglomerates, the SRG and other media have the power to amplify or suppress topics and facts. It is the duty of informed citizens to form their own opinion (to think for themselves), rather than adopting pre‑made ones.
Thus problem #6 becomes irrelevant (or surmountable).
