Why would the EC ever stop introducing regulations on what technology can and can’t do?

Because otherwise they couldn't rent seek from other countries to make up for their own industry deficiency.

I'm starting to think that you're badmouthing the EU to make up for your own industrial deficiency. The productive people I know (American and European alike) are much more civil in conversation.

Mentioning the fact that the EU has an industrial deficiency in tech is not "uncivil" any more than mentioning that the US has a manufacturing deficiency.

It is just a fact - I am not sure why you would think it uncivil.

This is being downvoted, but the trigger for the NetzDG-style regulations all over the world now was from Germany; and many at the time claimed it was quite close to the Chinese government’s censorship model.

A western nation doing it seems to cause many to think that such actions and laws are justified.
