    misleading headline, this isn’t a list of countries in which the law will (if it passes) be different (it won’t be, it’s an EU law, so will be the same in all EU countries), it’s a list of countries that currently support/oppose the law

      (it won’t be, it’s an EU law, so will be the same in all EU countries)

      This is not true btw. It’s not a mandatory law, and if you read the news about this the last 3 weeks, you would know that.

      EU laws are not automatically mandatory. That’s not how it works at all.

        The law will be the same in all EU countries, including whichever parts you think will be “not mandatory” (I did read those news articles and am fully aware that mandatory scanning is no longer on the table).

      It isn’t misleading (that’d be a technically true headline, which this isn’t). This is a downright lie, or as some might say, “fake news”.
