This is done not because they want to limit the power consumption so all people obey the law, no. This is because they are corrupted people and want to steal bussiness. The point is in this: just imagine Somali and pirates. And in my post I was talking about eastern Europe, not Europe. These are two different worlds. Eastern Europe is poor and very corrupted.
I read about it in this article: http://forklog.net/ukraines-law-enforcement-launch-raids-on-local-miners/
So, is it safe in your country to mine crypto?
In a European Union there is no problem to mine crypto. No one is monitoring you, unless you brake a law or trying to find some holes in a law system. If you are talking about Belarus, Ukraine or Russia. It's different story because of coruption and other things surrounding it.
