Not at all a subtle clue that the EU is rapidly speeding towards (pun very much intended) being a totalitarian socialist police state. On the other hand, one wonders how much support stuff like this will have in the US --- because at least it seems that we have the infamous Franklin quote and at least like to talk about our freedom a lot more...

It is not unique to EU. Just remember the Covid restrictions in USA in past years. Clearly fascist totalitarian policies. We are all heading to bad place and no one is fighting against it.

You're right, it's not just the EU but they seem to be leading (along with the Orwellian UK). The pandemic certainly raised the bar for tolerating totalitarianism. Also, 9/11 before that. There's definitely opposition, although whether it's sufficient is the question. One hopes the rest of the population will realise and join them before it's too late.
