The problem is the member states -- and the voters in the member states. The EU is only a coordination mechanism for those states. It's nothing like the federal layer of the US, or the federal layer of Germany for that matter.

Many member states want censorship. Many MEPs want censorship.

The political class is a law unto itself wherever they are. Of course they want censorship... They can't have people exposing their stupidity and corruption.
