So what do we do about big countries that does military and political pressure on smaller countries enforcing their copyright laws? The Pirate Bay comes to mind, as does Kim Dotcom. I'm sure there are more but I'm not that interested in the movie garbage from Hollywood to keep up.
That the EU starts doing copyright law like this is due to pressure and lobbying mainly from USA.
Actually most of the lobbying pressure is coming from big copyright companies inside the EU like record companies and associated groups, "Big Content" companies.
They have already "militarized" copyright enforcement in Germany with GEMA (though not in the Kim DotCom way)
