| Mixed-Signal: Strong positive signals on information freedom (Article 19: +0.65) and public health reporting (Article 25: +0.21, Article 13: +0.48) are substantially offset by significant structural privacy violations (Article 12: -0.28) from extensive third-party ad tracking without visible consent. Editorial content is generally aligned with UDHR health/information values; structural monetization practices undermine privacy and data security rights. Editorial
