Internet restrictions won't be the crucial part of the EU fall, it's just the beginning. Comparing this union to the similiar ones we've seen in the history of Europe, there will more situations like Brexit, GB is just the first country and in the following decade we'll see couple more leaving this sick formation. IMO we'll see another turn to indigenousness instead of globalization.

The EU was a failed experiment right from the beginning, and I think the elite are in the process of shoving it under the bus. They already have a replacement empire (CANZUK), and it wouldn't surprise me if tit wasn't planned from the beginning. The Five Eyes alliance ( CANZUK plus Washington) seems to be the main warmongering entity in the world at the moment. As the EU slips into irrelevance, it will attempt to push many globalist agendas, in the hope that some will stay after it has gone. Unfortunately Internet restrictions seems to one of their final projects.

Eu is becoming a dictatorship.
Big economies such as Germany have a bigger influence, yes, but that's the same outside the EU. I think you might be stretching the concept of dictatorship a tiny bit... The EU is made up of MEPs directly elected by each constituent nation. The European Commission is made up of unelected civil servants, but these are directly accountable to the elected parliament.
The other two foundations of democracy, transparency and accountability, might be more contentious, but the responsibility here lies with the individual nations, as it is they, through elections, who shape the EU and determine its direction and how it functions.

Brexit anyone.
Thanks, I don't.



In terms of 'ruining the internet', I would contend that one of the biggest issues we as individuals face is the pervasive surveillance by Facebook, Google and friends. They don't just sell our data, they also use it for behavioural profiling to a) better target adverts, b) predict how we will behave in future and, most insidiously, c) modify our behaviour by gently nudging us towards desired outcomes. It all comes down to money. Surveillance Capitalism is Facebook's entire business model.

The EU is taking steps to protect us here. Baby steps, sure, and not perfectly implemented, but at least they are trying, which is more than can be said for most other places. Europe is now protected by the world's strongest data protection laws.

The GDPR provides the following rights for individuals:

The right to be informed
The right of access
The right to rectification
The right to erasure
The right to restrict processing
The right to data portability
The right to object
Rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling.
