Greece would essentially have to wall themselves off from every country that doesn't...

So if an instance was hosted in Greece, and this actually happens...

Yeah, it would effect that instance.

It seems like you just quoted a tiny bit of the sentence so it would seem like a possibility tho...

Critics highlight the technical complexity of the issue and suggest that an EU-wide approach may be more practical to implement. Meanwhile, the EU governments which consider such a measure will also need to address potential freedom of speech concerns – as digital rights campaigners have warned for years.

    I quoted it because I have a problem with it and it wasn't the main thing. Who in their right mind would even suggest this?

    Because as a complete thought it clearly means:

    For X to work we'd have to d Y, which has even less chances of happening.

    And you picked out "we'd have to do Y" and presented that like it's a plan anyone is proposing and not an example of how impossible it would be...

    But I don't think any of that is going to help

    This is why the EU usually moves in packs, be it on Ukraine, emissions or anything else. Basically, it will take a few more countries to join in to see a real effect.
