Yeah the eu should really be worried. When masses of people have no shame or fear hiding sympathy for obviously terrorist actions then there’s a massive massive issue at hand and thats not a YouTube or tiktok video. Thats a power vacuum that will manifest itself in grotesque ways in the coming future. The dark forces to be are only beginning to realise it.

We need to threaten Europe with 100% tariffs until they turn off the GDPR warnings.

As an American, I'm glad someone who shares interests with the US has the competence and power to regulate our tech megacorps. It seems like our government is totally disinterested in doing it themselves.

#17Stated purpose of law: prohibits advocating genocide.
Actual effect of law: prohibits preserving evidence of genocide.
I know there’s, broadly speaking, a difference in how freedom of speech is defined in America versus Europe. The (slightly inflammatory) description above is why I personally find the “European” definition distasteful.

Useful regulation, if such a thing exists, does not take the form of arbitrary censorship of publishing.
The fact that anything a government points a finger at and says “terrorism” is literally illegal to disseminate should terrify everyone.

You should be thankful for the EU, they're at the forefront of good things for citizen. It's like California but 20 years ahead.
> they're at the forefront of good things for citizen.
Ah right, good things for citizens by wanting to 'ban' encryption. Because 'think of the children,' or some such. Most world governments aren't your friends, as much as you'd want them to be. EU *DOES* do stuff that's bad for their citizens. Just because they did x or y you agree with doesn't magically make them protector of mankind.

In EU, and not worried at all by pro-Palestinian protests. Thank you.
