Unfortunately, that seems to be entirely possible. If the EU can't get over it's power struggle for the DNS, there's a possibility that all Eurpoeans will be cut off from BTP :/.

All the EU would have to do is make their own DNS and then force all the ISPs and web space hosts in countries affiliated with the EU to use them.

Not neccesarily. In the short term, it certainly is a bad thing, but in the long term, it's a good thing. Medicine improves during wars because it is needed, doctors can try out new methods and learn to think for themselves, which progresses medicine. Which in turn, makes people healthier and saves lives. So, in a way, wars save lives.
I'm not saying that war is great, just trying to make you see the other side of the argument.
Actually, it's still bad in the long term. The longer a war goes on, the more tension is built up. This tension leads to even more powerful weapons to be developed. Then the destruction leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to the dark side (sorry about the cliche ). After a war is over, numerous skirmeshes are still being sparked, which can lead to another war.
And medicine doesn't neccessarily improve during a war. War is all about meatball surgery, patch them up quickly and get them back out. Medicine isn't developed more during wars from people sitting back and thinking about it. It's progressed by doctors and nurses at the front having to re-write the rule book to save people's lives on the fly.
Usually if medicine doesn't develop, technology will. The fish finder for instance, was invented because of the radar technology used in war.

I enjoy how we're discussing posts from over six months ago .
Usually if medicine doesn't develop, technology will. The fish finder for instance, was invented because of the radar technology used in war.
That would be all well and good to, if the development of radar was due to war. Radar was developed by people studying bats. It just happens that the military intercepted the invention and used it first.
