> [1] First, the EU countries have much higher World Press Freedom Index than the US

I don't think the placement of the US on the World Press Freedom Index is necessarily informative of whether there's censorship in the EU. I'd expect they both rank higher than North Korea, but that doesn't tell us much either.

The organization that publishes the WPFI also considers online harassment a major threat to press freedom and scores accordingly.
