The EU didn't start this.

I may remind you of the Megaupload case, where a German is under arrest in New Zealand for breaking US law by offering his site to American visitors.

The US has created the precedence for enforcing local law internationally during both the piracy enforcement cases, and the NSA cases.

As result, it is just expected that other countries will use this tool for their own purposes — in this case, the EU is using it even for ghe benefit of the people. Something you can't say about the use the US made of it.
