The EU's Digital Services Act, due to become law in 2024, will likely become the global gold standard that American tech firms will be forced to adapt to. It will place substantial content moderation requirements on tech firms, including limiting "false information, hate speech, and extremism" (archive.ph)

Looks like the next big battle for free speech is coming right up. The EU is doubling down on controlling speech, and it's going to affect everyone as we're dealing with a few international companies that control all major social media platforms.

If this works for them, it's going to mean more censorship, more thought police, more authoritarian bullshit.

If this doesn't work and the companies don't play ball, it might lead to the balkanization of the internet. Honestly, that's a concerning prospect that would probably result in the total collapse of the globalism and the global economy.

Why? Because so much money is tied in Big Tech in an international network of companies. Balkanize the internet which is what made all of this possible, and in an instant we'll go back to the 90s in a very destructive way.

The EU is a fully controlled American vassal - the silence after the destruction of the nordstream pipelines proves it.

EU ideology is Globohomo ideology, which is handed down from the US.

I believe the US uses the EU to pass laws that will effect the whole world, in situations where it would not be able to pass such laws in their own country.

You know the petrodollar is propping up globalism right now too and our "leaders" in the West are doing their best to destroy it. The new Russo-Sino-Iranian petro renminbi is going to be a reality soon, and it will remain long after the war in Ukraine ends.
