Assume people are against these bans - just like against banning stuff in the EU. I'm one of those. So what did the EU achieve? I still access unavailable services via TOR/VPN, these laws still don't protect me and US companies are still not liable. Laws only work if you have enough power to enforce them.

> Assume people are against these bans Yes, that's what I suspect. And that's why blocking even more online resources is not a working approach. It just won't have any positive effect. > So what did the EU achieve? Well, my guess would be weakening of their political institutions. Passing laws that aren't supported by large swathes of the population, and that won't be consistently enforced is a battle-tested recipe component for undermining a democracy.
