European Digital Rights Launched

I think that, in general, awareness of what's going on at the European level is very low among EU-citizens. People tend to be more concerned with what their state gov't decides, and media coverage of EU-wide issues is extremely lacking. And then, Europeans tend to be less concerned about freedom because we have more of it! :-p
Please correct me if I got my facts wrong.
