been discussing this with my boyfriend for the last hour. This is going to be interesting to say the least.

My predictions are, in a way, it could be good that this happened. The negative impact this will have on the internet here in europe, and perhaps the world over, and how the public react to it, will show just how these kind of laws are treated by the people.
Out of touch bureaucrats lying to the public about it being about 'preventing piracy', when reality is piracy will keep happening with this in place.

Still will effect content creation, sharing things like entertainment and information online. Til will also increase the numbers of people routing their IPs though to none european servers by a massive amount to bypass it, again, making such things pointless for the reasons they claim its being put in place.

And the everyday joe is the one who suffers because of it.

Get out while you can (Brexit).  The Germans will only give it to you hard, never soft.  They still seek revenge?

Germany, given natural gas needs, would become the integrated E Germany, not the integrated W Germany.  Stazi all the way down.  Russia has the gas.  Beans not included ;-)

Greece will never be allowed to escape ... the Germans need their winter villas.

the funny thing is I can see something like this pushing the internet generation into demanding the uk government to step up its game and split from the EU faster.

Maybe, or demand that the UK not leave the German utopia behind.  Join the French poodle to the British bulldog?  Possible, given the tendency to trans species genetics in Europe.

We have called y'all EUSR for a long time now.  If Nato fought the Warsaw Pact, it was 50/50 if you would shoot the Americans instead of the Russians.

What is next?  Forced listening to Vogon poetry.

Old joke ... Does EU know that Bill Gates owns the copywrite to the letter "e"?  Now you can't use "e" without asking him first ;-)

Look up Galambosianism ... a crazy idea for the R-wing 60s.

https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Galambosianism aka there is no such thing as "fair use" which has been under attack for decades (that an extending copywrite for longer and longer terms to please Disney Corp etc).

If France and England go to war again, do WE ask the Germans for NATO help?

President Washington was correct about one thing at least.  Avoid foreign entanglements.

Good advice.  My "perfect" neighbors are suddenly throwing things at each other,  outside Wow!
