But this does mean voluntary actions get taken away.
And secondly, we have tech that makes censorship hard. So why keep using those platforms?
You want me to believe that the Euroids (police officers of the EU states) are going to enforce this on everyone? How will that even work. May as well cut the Internet off, ban import of routers etc. It becomes wild.
It's like a 3D printer ban, it's just absurd.
So I'd say, wait till it gets to that and then pushback (if you even need to, as mentioned: alt-tech is the answer)

It will work by "exclusion", the same way as attestation in EU (very soon) where only google and apple phones can run EU identification apps.
So unfortunately, it's not that easy, people need to act before it's too late, even if they are unaffected - like me - I'm ungovernable, I will just use a different transport layer, or a fake ID if I have to. I'm not doing it for myself, but for those who will have to live with this nightmare in the future if we don't stop it
And you are in the phase "no, this is insane they won't do it".
Well, that's what has changed in 2025 - they crossed a lot of red lines and everything is on the table right now, that's why I'm warning about it so often. I have a rule - I warn only about really dangerous things, things on the edge, things way more dark than any war or genocide.
Can my prediction be wrong? Of course! What is more, I really hope I'm wrong.
