What will happen if Europe and other countries decide to build their own internet? Does it mean our current internet will compete with theirs?

No. They would use it to restrict access of their citizens to certain websites the governing body deemed as "anti socialist" or anti EU, or websites hostile to certain political agendas of the EU./p>

I certainly hope not!
I am assuming that, should they stop flapping their lips and stop trying to steal American technolical excellence, and build their useless internet, that all traffic direct and indirect from every muslim country will be filteres out.
That means, for example, if terrorist sandmaggot traffic is routed through France, and the French do not block it, France gets banned too.

Good riddance.

It means those countries will heavily tax and censor their version of the internet and forcibly prevent their citizens from attempting to use the better U.S. internet via threat of legal sanctions and imprisonment. In other words, they'll muck it all up.
