    Not directly within the EU but it is entirely possible that US based ISPs could restrict access from the US to EU sites affecting companies there. You might also see the US ISPs start requiring EU ISPs to pay for access to their networks or for high speed links. So from a regulatory standpoint US laws have no effect of how the EU operatates legally. From a business perspective that is an unknown.

    Yes they could but the current party in power, Republicans, primarily cater to big business so it is very unlikely anything will happen for the foreseeable future. They've had seven years to do something and haven't which should also say something.

    And due to Verizon most of that law was shot down as far as the FCC being able to regulate it. So NN is in the law but not enforceable.
