You want to live in a federal "United States of Europe." You don't. That's something to write to your national legislators and MEPs about, not ranting on an MMO forum.

If Blizzard can do it, Square Enix can. Give me one good reason why they were able to satisfy all the legal requirements and Square Enix cannot.
Laws don't work in broad generalizations. I can't give you "one good reason" until you're able to provide a single, specific contest from Activision that you were able to participate in to compare to this single, specific contest from S-E.
