You obviously were not alive in the cold war era. I have to repeat myself your perspective is a very naive one. Becoming totalitarian is a step by step path. "Article 13 won't bring upload filters" 2 years later... upload filters. The basis of the EU is not a democracy and as you can see and will see in future attempts will become so less and less over time. There will always be people who want to control and spy upon other people. And without knowing you I'll say you too. If you get the chance to spy on someone's bedroom passing by from outside the window without being noticed and no risk of being caught you will do so. Opportunity creates crime.
