  1. So EU movie and series makers have funds to make more EU content in the EU.
    Such EU laws force investment in new EU content.
    The paying for past EU movie and series to make up the "European sourced content"
    People want to enjoy very different content but the EU govs will force support to flow back to the EU "arts".

  2. The creative internet well see EU censorship then create routes around EU gov controls.

  3. Dont have a site in the EU. Dont invest in the EU. Let people enjoy really great internet content "outside" the EU.

    "Tax" considerations will do.
    Call it a new basic customs duty on imported tech. Then all the extra parts that go with the tech get a tax. Battery, headset, chargers.
    That extra price makes all domestic products look great. The repatriation strategy can also get looked at for Indian tax liabilities.

  5. Think back to PRISM. NSA and GCHQ are always watching via the big brands.

  12. Bring in undercover state and feds to pose as new "criminals".
    Offer city police all kinds of different payments and see who accepts. Who says no and reports the bribe.
    Capture every offer using surveillance. The police station, in the police car, via the cell phone. Any new offer of cash could be a trap.
    Make it so every bribe offered to police "could" be from other under cover law enforcement.
    That results in a good police force over time.

    Map out all crime in the city and get the good police to enforce exisiting laws.
    Give good police the surveillance, GUI maps, software, facial recognition and voice print collection they need to disrupt all crime.
    Crime goes down. People return to invest in a great low crime city.
    Jobs are created by the private sector again. People want to move back to a clean and safe city.
