Because the EU doesn't really have much actual power to do anything that impacts normal citizens. Like the EU doesn't start criminal prosecutions or anything against people. If there is some crime you're being prosecuted for it's going to be your country's government that prosecutes you.

No one is really worried about the EU becoming some sort of Orwellian state because it isn't a state, it doesn't operate like that.

Edit: I should say that this shit also isn't going to pass the European Parliament, its just a proposal which is going to get voted down.
