Eurosceptics are already right though! Everything about Article 13 and 11, from the disinformation campaigns to the outright dismissing of public protest is direct proof the so-called European project is one giant SCAM! All a scam by fascist Corporations hell bent on taking over the world and silencing the people by pulling the plug on the internet! Basically the world is the internet now and those who control the internet controls the world! That is the Corporations who run the EU end game!
