EU. I don't think it is any better at the national level however.

The EU is not a government. It's a loose economic confederation. And national European governments vary wildly in their positions on this.

It isn't an "economic confederation". It has a parliament, an executive, a judiciary, and a civil service. I would read the wiki page on the European Union.

Call it what you want but the fact remains that they can write a lot of laws the member countries must follow, for better or worse. GDPR, Chat Control, etc.
