It's a big feature for users who value freedom of speech.

It's laughable that a guy from the EU doesn't get it - their freedom of speech is shit.

This is nothing to do with freedom of speech; the issue is differing laws on data privacy between the EU and US (and repeated failure of Safe Harbour and other regulatory attempts to paper over the cracks).
