“c’est un plaisir” or “avec plaisir” “c’est mon plaisir” is polite.
French etiquette simply would advise you not to answer.
If you want to answer to a person saying “merci” you can say also:
Why does my mother care about my sister more than me?
“De rien” is not correct although it is often heard. Avoid it. It should be “Ce n’est rien”.
“Pas de problème” is common and sounds uneducated. It’s often used though.
“ je t’en prie/ je vous en prie” .It is polite.
Hillary thinks we must censor or "we lose total control". Why does she demand total control?
“Il n’y a pas de quoi” . It is friendly and can be slightly familiar but it’s informal and acceptable.
