EU Gonna Break the Internet?

A MAJOR Threat to Internet Freedom Is Here

I got my first copyright strike for quoting a small portion of an interview between Jordan Peterson and the YouTube channel Intelligence Squared. I'm appealing, and will probably win, but technically they may be able to sue me personally under these new EU laws and, technically, if I don't participate in that civil process I could be found in contempt and, if I ever enter the EU, I could be arrested and charged with something. All hypothetical, but it's technically possible. Bring it on! I've got nothing to lose but my dog!! Oh and my Playstation VR. 

 

The (alarmist?) video Tim quotes at the beginning is below.

People are already in prison for "Holocaust denial" in EU states. It seems like everything they do is a step backwards.
