You replace the menus with a single tiny menu, then put everything on the same line.

As far as I can see the directive would require ISPs to record what sites I visit, not what I do on them. Isn’t this what they already do?
No, ISPs do not record what sites you visit. At least none that I know of (and I work in the industry). Why would they ? It would be outrageously expensive, for no gain.
Isn’t that information already available following a warrant anyway?
Well no, as ISPs do not record what sites you visit. They can put a tap on your line after a warrant though (Lawful Intercept), but that is for one user specifically, and nothing is recorded- a copy of the data that passes over the line is just sent in real-time to the justice department.

Rember that Microsoft got fined hundreds of millions ?
Heard about the windows7 browser selection tool ?
That was all her work, actually.Until last year she was the European Competition Commissioner.
... let's see, If it were a child pornography site, then yes, I would agree with censorship.
Really ? I'd rather that the police just go and find the bastards that run the site, shut it down, and throw them in jail.
Blacklisting is just a "if we can't see it, it isn't there, great we're done" policy, which probably increases the very thing you're trying to prevent.

Well, the Jovion corporation apparently has a method do do this- http://peswiki.com/index.php/Directory:Jovion_Corporation_and_Zero_Point_Energy

It's not going to happen. The police tried to run this scheme, and the ISPs almost fell for it. Then the minister of justice noticed what was going on, investigated it, and concluded that it was against the law (!).
Bit of a shame though. The agreement between ISPs and the police was much better then any future law will be
It had very good checks and balances built in. For example, the agreement was in the form of a contract, and it would become invalid the moment any non-child-porn site showed up on the list.
Oh well. All in all I'm happy it didn't go through. But I'm wondering what they will come up with next.
And it should be the law: If you use the word `paradigm' without knowing what the dictionary says it means, you go to jail. No exceptions. -- David Jones
