In the EU, maybe not.
This may be a signal that the internet has become way too centralized.
The irony of the centralization of a decentralized platform is suddenly enforcement of regulations like these become feasible. The nuclear-war proof internet is suddenly vulnerable to people sitting behind desks or whatever the hell they do in Europe.

Everything has positive and negative sides, and for the EU the negative side is giving lobbyists a 28-for-1 offer: lobby a single parliament, and have your legislation implemented in 28 different countries! The mileage of a European lobbyist has never been greater than it is now.
