    The EU can and should ban government and business’s from using twitter as part of their official communications. But if private citizens wants to tweet, then sure go for it, even the EU with it’s less then stellar speech record, particularly with the labeling antisemitism, still allows freedom of association.

      VPNs exist. All blocking of websites is just a slight inconvenience at the end of the day.

        Blocking, yes. Bans can be more, though. When poor opsec gets you defenestrated or shipped to an offshore entertainment facility, it’s a bit more than an inconvenience.

          I don’t think anyone reads “X ban” as sending people to offshore “entertainment” facilities. Lol.
