I value them a lot, happy that the EU didnt bend down to Apple.
If it werent for the EU, the companies would get away with all sorts of shit.
Is as if people forget companies are evil by nature and will fuck you any chance they get.

Yeah, like those blasted cookies!!! Thankfully, now we have banners on every website, I have never felt more protected!

That's been true from day one. So the question is, did you come up with the FUD yourself, or did you believe someone else?
What do you call FUD? Endless websites pestering me with their banners, do you deny that they exist?
I'm curios what kind of shit specifically DMCA protects you from?
I think you mean DMA, not DMCA. DMCA mostly protects copyright holders. DMA is about protecting users and competitors from platform lock-in. Bending for Apple would just make that lock-in harder to challenge.
DMCA provides some rather important protection for service providers (including small-scale services like web forums, not just ISPs and web hosts) - it makes them not liable for copyright violations by their users, so long as they take down infringing content upon receipt of a DMCA notice.
But I agree, that's probably not what OP meant.
