yes, I remember last month or 2 mths ago YT's CEO has made an open to all video-appeal, regarding the restrictions prepared in Europe.
perhaps it is not exactly about the end of internet per se, but rather about emerging of "Borders" within internet. which in fact has started quite some time ago, for example China restricting FB and some other social media - then instead creating their own analogue of those. also as I remember earlier Iran once restricting Twitter (after that "Twitter revolution") and may be later Egypt too... etc. etc.
many countries has done similar or the same with various social networks.
the thing is, term "infowars" has not just been coined by Alex Jones nor merely is the product of his imagination or of sick minds of "conspiracy theorists". social media are really being used as an informational warfare. that's besides all other things it is being used for, of course. therefore it is inevitable that various countries impose different restrictions. and if do sufficient research will see that actually US is one of the main one who does the most censorship and restrictions. (again Alex Jones comes to mind, and that's just among most publicly known cases - not even talking about less known)
so, it is a political issue, unfortunately. and class action lawsuits are quite unlikely to help anything at all. (not more than help Assange or Alex Jones - if some would bother to try)
