Isn’t it obvious? The EU will be blocked out from the latest and greatest experiences on the web.

  Right. Just like China etc. So anyone in the EU will need to use VPNs and/or Tor to reach the real Internet. I mean, it's one thing to force respect for people's privacy. But this stuff is fundamentally inconsistent with the Internet.

    Maybe it's just the latest ploy in the game of creating home grown internet companies. Weibo et al seem to do great behind the Great Firewall.
