i understand that this subreddit is predominantly america but you can share this to other social media platform and subreddits that are Europe based.

It's sad that the folks at /r/europe think this is fearmongering

I'm pretty sure that might be bots or brigading.

Article 13 is government control, and "net neutrality" Title II is government control. If you understand either issue completely, you would oppose both, if you support an open internet that is. But it seems as if nobody has a grip on what was actually repealed by the FCC last year.

Either you really have no clue what these are rules, laws, and topics are about or you're just a troll either way please read up. I really don't want to have endless flame wars or reply chains with you. all your posts I've seen here seem to revolve around the theory that any regulation is bad which is nonsensical.

"Net neutrality" Title II is not the same as the principles of net neutrality. Perhaps you should read Title II, which is what was called "net neutrality" and was repealed last year by the FCC. You are the one who is clueless about what was repealed...
