Because the EU is run by and for big business, which wants to monopolise the internet for itself. I can't believe "liberals" still buy into this bankers' scam.

Every time I want to read a story from a US news source I get a message saying it's not available in EU area. Such bs!

I've had that message quite a few times. I agree it's frustrating.
