Ah yes, requiring user consent is exactly the same thing as censoring information not beneficial to the government.

i don't really mean a censorship firewall, rather an attempt to shoo US companies from the EU market the same way that China is protecting its own companies.

So EU companies are allowed to ignore GDPR, as it's just used to shoo away US companies?
