Article 11 & Article 13

>no more shitty wojack and frog edits

what a bunch of retards amirite?

>The Internet will die in your lifetime

Thank the stars, I'm finally free

where did you lick him?

First time poster. The implications of those two articles are far more greater than what you may think.

Article 11 will not allow anyone to share news articles without direct permission from the company that owns them, you must buy a license in order to share, comment or critizise publicly that article.

Article 13 will make what Youtube previously started doing to every single big service. Imagine not being able to google screencaps og a movie unless the owner explicitly publishes them. You also can't share a captioned meme from any movie or show, and are not allowed to even search for them. Google, Facebook, Twitter... they will be FORCED to ensure no copyright content is uploaded. Youtube won't demonitize your video for gameplay, they will DELETE IT.

As a Software Engineer I see one or two good articles in what they propose but these two are just awful. Like, V for Vendetta levels of awful. If they get through and are aprooved, expect hackers targetting congress members. And I hope it's just hacking and not public assault on them.

We are at doors of a new cold war. A war of technology vs the government. And let's hope it ends well.

>I honestly don't know why there's such an uproar about these articles
a reduction of the peoples rights is an inevitable slippery slope to even worse legislation

except it's not fascism. it's oligarchic interests preservation.

the only path to freedom is to purge the system by removing all these journalists, politicians and billionaires.

I hope they do

I would prefer an internet without them

Dumb reddirt shill.

Fuck off reddit

How did someone who is obviously retarded manage to become a software engineer?

This is made to fuck with american tech companies. If you think this will be widely enforced, you're out of your mind

EU doesn't like US tech giants. We've seen this with the massive fines. Now, they have even more leverage against them. That's what this is about

Feels good not being a yurocuck

Nah I just never post I'm more comfortablw with witnessing shitposts from a distance. Reddit is way less interesting than this place.

This wasn't made to fuck with anybody but to help the big mean european corporations of the digital market feel better about their tiny penises. Google it, you can find that singers and publishers are the ones that encouraged the congress members to look into a cooyright reform because they are afraid they are loosing too much money.

And I mean I just graduated as a Software Engineer. With a 10/10 final carreer project. Like, dude. I'm a good Software Engineer that is still looking for his first job giving away his opinion online, don't take me seriously if you don't want to.

WHY DID I HAVE TO BE BORN JUST AS THE WEST BEGUN IT'S SHARP DESCENT INTO THE REALM OF DECAY WITH IT'S ARMS OPENING WIDE AS RIGOR MORTIS SET IN

IT'S NOT FAIR
HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO ME

>If you think this will be widely enforced, you're out of your mind
land of bureaucracy, germans will enforce it to the letter.

Too bad most shitposters are from Canada and Australia.

It's illegal to transfer all kinds of data already but it's occurring none the less. This just makes it easier to shake down those not respecting private property.

If you're not a communist and believe in private property there's notting wrong here.

Time to move to china, land of piracy and last bastion of digital "nobody cares there too many of you retards"

>no income tax
because there is no income?

t. gets killed for posting winnie the pooh

But Germany is not the rest of the EU. Germany is so beyond redemption at this point, this directive is insignificant
Who ever got the ball rolling has little impact on how it will actually be used. This is clearly a tool to fight tech giants because EU doesn't really like de facto monopolies controlling everything, which is what we have now

Like, who else would be subject to this directive they couldn't already take down using the laws already in place?

But the problem is that even Google is going to be forced into not allowing people to share anything.

Imagine that world. Where if you sesrch "MARVEL" in Google you will only be avle to find official Marvel published images. No fanart. No screencaps. No nothing. Now extend that to Facebook, Twitter, Jow Forums... heck, deviantArt will be mostly gone. For better or worse.

> be in 1945 + 73
> think any political decision is made against large corporations
tfw my sides are gone
stupid fuck

It isn't law yet, the package still has to be voted on.

Yeah but the fact that they said "this is good enough to put it through a vote" is NOT helpful at all to my now completely lost faith in the government.

what did he mean by this?

Alright you heard the big man boys. All of the Overwatch porn classified as parody is illegal unless yoy pay Blizzard. If they even let you pay.

People sharing torrents are getting suits left and right in EU, no shit they wouldn't give a pass to American monopolies.

Hey retard, have you followed any of the cases against those tech giants? Guess what they all have in common? Yea, they're american

EU doesn't like US tech giants controlling the world and this is the latest counter measure

You really should stop posting senpai, you're embarrassing yourself by displaying your inability to grasp even a basic thing such as this

Bismillah this man knows the way.

cant corner the dorner

The people who passed it aren't voted in, so they do not fear for their jobs at all. They are not part of your countries government at all. The people who make the final vote are, so they are more influenced by the threat of the electorate and the real threat to their careers if they pass this. Though it is indeed surprising.

>you cunt bitches gone balls crazy here
in free translation

Anyone who thinks not being part of the EU will save the internet is fucking stupid. All websites will have to comply with this because if EU countries can access it then they can technically be prosecuted.
Facebook and other social media will do this automatically.
Jow Forums will have to comply with this as well, hopefully they will just ban euros.

Jow Forums will either have to comply, or it can just range ban EU states, if EU states can access it and Jow Forums doesn't comply it can be prosecuted by the EU, and fined.

Seems easier just to completely rangeban Europe so as to keep Jow Forums alive

off shore datacenters when?

Touché.

Now seriously If by January when the actual official resolution is due the EU votes in favor I may consider publicly declaring myself a fugitive and start wandering around my country giving away pendrives full of memes.

Yeah I mean it's how the world works. You can't give service to a population if their law does not allow it :c

We will have to find loopholes around the law and create a brand new shady looking sharing platform

The real question is: how the fuck they gonna prosecute non-Euro sites?
What is stopping them from saying "we don't give a fuck" and do nothing?

>EU doesn't like US tech giants controlling the world and this is the latest counter measure
Not him but
>defending what is a blatant EU power trip and in the best case scenario blatant protectionism as you described

Legal resources will make that country enforce the law on them. Like Megaupload. Imagine you sharing a meme and Mark Zuckerberg v1.2 being pursued by the feds because he is not doing anything and the EU is complaining to the feds for not stopping him.

I'm not defending it, at all. Where did you get that?

I'm correcting retards who talk shit. USA is shit, EU is shit. 2 shits fighting each other

Though i will admit i'll be happy to watch jewgle and facebook being taken down a notch or 2 but i also know something equally bad will replace them

tech giants will be fine, we are going to suffer for nothing
like with any restrictive law.

I have probably followed them far better than you.
Past the announce effects, what really happened against them, appeal after appeal ?
Nothing, exactly
Now go back to gobbling cock and never come back, faggot

This isn't "fascism" you dumb fucks. It's protecting corporate interests. You know, the number one goal of all politicians since the beginning of capitalism?

Eh they could easily just block Jow Forums in EU states if Hiro tells them to get fucked.
In any case I'd encourage Euros to a non-EU proxy because its likely they'll be denied direct access - from Hiro's point of view its easier to rangeban EU than deal with the monumental load of EU regulatory horseshit

Some will, sure

I'm Danish and we have a pretty lax attitude when it comes to EU nonsense, so i'm not too worried about it

Also, keep in mind it hasn't been voted on by the people who actually makes decisions and who will be held accountable by voters

>euro-free Jow Forums
I like it

>fails at quoting
>calls someone else a cock gobbling faggot
You just fucked yourself newfriend

Finally no more smelly euros on my internet.

>It's protecting government interests.
ftfy. (((Globalist))) corporations are the government.

Yes Google and Facebook will blocks one of the biggest markets in the world.... Lel

Its obviously boomers that are gonna implement this shit, will probably be ez to bypass.

The EU is nothing more than a tool of globalist bankers.

It happens. It doesn't remove anything from what I said, nigger.
Proof ? You saw to whom it was destined.
Now fuck off.

This might be taking a turn towards politics and economics rather than technology. All in all, those two articles are horrible and only a handful of corporations are ok with them because they are publishers (AKA Music companies and big artist firms). These people believe everything will be fine and dandy but the big boys like Google And Facebook KNOW this will be a disaster and not just for them.

I have never wished harder for a World War III to happen so congress delays risking the internet because of lawyers and their greed.

not him but how do you fuck up quoting this badly?

>how the fuck they gonna prosecute non-Euro sites?
Google and Facebook have legal entities in EU, they earn money from advertising from EU clay. This law is made to fine the shit out of them when they make EU angry.

Oh god what will Twitter even do? They rely on their reaction gifs so much and all that will be illegal because the official source (show, movie) owners haven't given Gyphy the rights to explicitly post those gifs.

The more I think about those two articles the more scared I become by their implications.

Memes and parodies have nothing to do with it, it was basically made for music and journal articles alone

Automatic content upload filter.

>And let's hope it ends well.
With the downfall of the EU, yes

except memes and parodies are affected. that hilarious gif with capamerica saying "I understood that reference"? copyrighted, so, not allowed. that epin anime reaction face? copyright, banned. literally anything is affected. want to just LINK to a site as a response? can't, you didn't pay the right to do it. etc.

Exactly! But that's why the way they phrased it in those articles is just AWFUL. If they were intended for specific types of media on the internet they should have moved them to a different proposal. Not mix it in with actual good ideas like limiting the data collected by companies.

Those two articles might bring the end of the internet as the wonderful chaotic world we know it as.

what the fuck gon happen to my cartoon torrents

Except they are explicitly not affected
You can argue about the How but not the What

This guy gets what the problem actually comes down to. Kudos to you, hopefully more people do research and form an opinion on their own and raise awareness against this "Meme Crisis".

... am I allowed to named this situation as the Meme Crisis? Because it seems it will go deeper than that. Maybe The EU Copyright Crisis is too long.

Damn it, we need a name for this to be recorded in history. Any ideas?

It'll be null routing Europe's ranges and changing their TOS to ban people from Europe. Anyone who violates that is violating US federal law.

But they can change their policies and explicitly declare that they will be no longer providing their service to X country due to legal reasons. Which is still in federal law as long as they publicly notify it in advance.

Someone link the text.

Careful, you won't be able to talk about fat people and mutts anymore

>it's oligarchic interests preservation
Gee I wonder how Mussolini got to power.

Do you have permission to request that, citizen?

or just result in mass banning euroniggers from non euro sites to avoid the compliance headaches

Not the text itself but here have this easily accesible link that everyone should have taken a look at as they research

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directive_on_Copyright_in_the_Digital_Single_Market

Which in most countries goes against the law. Services will also have to publicly declare that they won't be offering their services to your country. So yeah, paperwork whatever they do, and legal one! Every company is gonna be very busy paying up some lawyers to fix the shitstorm these two articles could bring.

So will search engines remove news links from the EU? Sounds good to me.

Technically speaking how the hell they gonna stop me uploading random pictures to a vietnames throat singing board?

How many days until they realize they cant control the internet?

I hate this world. More specifically, I hate humanity.

We do nothing right. Seriously, what is the fucking point in living if there are so few beautiful things to gaze upon? What good have humans actually accomplished? Everything we create that has the potential to be great becomes trashed and abused into a form insidious wrongdoing to ourselves.

We have intelligence but no wisdom. We are mediocre pieces of shit.

just start sending enough fines, people will eventually start banning content creators for what's "wrong"

So are nyaa and all the other sites going down?

You have to live here for 9 years straight, have a job, speak Danish, know some random facts about the country.
