How much dangerous censorship does your Asian nation carry out? India, for example, blocks thousands of websites - no sex work for them - and regularly shuts down the Internet entirely.

Why is the response to all of this a giant ad hominem. “Oh but <region> does it too!” - how does this help me as an European?

Why else do you think I mentioned that the EU is on a dangerous path ? I utterly stand against govt censorship.

But corporate censorship by companies larger and more powerful than most countries with no democratic accountability is ok?

Govt is far worse since Corporates can't throw you in jail for social media posts - which is what is happening.
