U.S. Vice President JD Vance just went off on the European Union's Digital Services Act, calling it straight-up censorship. His take? Brussels is crushing free speech instead of protecting it, and apparently even some of von der Leyen's own crew aren't fans of the DSA.

This matters way more than it looks. The DSA isn't just about social media drama—it's setting precedents for how governments can regulate digital platforms globally. And when that spills over into Web3 territory, you're looking at potential crackdowns on decentralized protocols, crypto projects, even how DAOs communicate.

Vance's angle is clear: overreach disguised as consumer protection. Whether you buy that or not, one thing's obvious—regulatory battles like this shape the rules crypto builders have to play by. The EU tightens the screws, other regions might follow. Or push back harder.
