A more direct and confrontational approach would be for browser companies to do what website owners have effectively done, which is to agree in advance to implement some sort of annoying pop-up (shown every time the browser updates) saying "Do you want the EU to weaken your security and enable spying? [Yes] [No]", like those annoying cookie pop-ups.
The difference being, of course, that the cookie pop-ups are designed to dark-pattern users into giving away their rights, and to blame the EU unfairly, whereas these browser pop-ups would be to help protect users' rights and to correctly blame the EU (assuming the regulation passes).
