Do they have the slightest idea how much damage it would do to the international reputation of Europe if they were to make e.g. Signal illegal? I suppose some of them do, which is why it hasn't passed before.

Lol... They don't care. This will keep getting pushed until it is passed. Then we go underground and they will start prosecuting undesirables on as needed basis.

Just like USSR and China lol

You think they know what Signal is or what the internet even is? These people don’t care or know.

Their assistants, lobbyists and whisperers know.

How is this from the same place that created the GPDR?

Because the EU is a diverse group of different interests, and while some intend to do good some are also fucking psychopaths.

And at the same time they want more cloud services in EU.
