Does the EU have a history of such action? From my perspective, the EU's sorta always been the cutting edge of consumer protections and is nearly anti-corporate with the common-sense protection bills they put through for member states to implement.
Genuine question.
EU is usually very pro consumer but not long ago there were (and there still are) some shit takes on piracy and stuff.
I don't think they'll ban VPNs though. It's not pro consumer and it's anti-privacy which EU is also very strong on.
