Why are you retards not talking about the fact that article 11 and 13 just passed the committee vote? They must be stopped before they are implemented.

What are they about? Literally heard nothing about this.

EU is not a country, they cannot force it in our little nation states if we dont want it.

apparently it's about copyright protection and involves provisions tasking webmasters with ensuring that copyright is not being infringed by uploaded content.

think it's what somebody somewhere said about how they are banning memes and laying groundwork for automated censorship.

Your own politicians probably want it. Even anti-EU conservatives voted in favor of them. It's not about the EU, it's about corrupt politicians being bribed by big companies to do their will.
>Article 13 would require the services you use, like Facebook, Linkedin, and Twitter to keep tabs on you and potentially delete copyrighted material you post. There’s no way to do this by hand, so what you say and what you see will have to be controlled by algorithms, which can’t tell a joke from a meme, or a friends’ karaoke night from pop song piracy. Automatic filtering could make it practically impossible to comment on current events or pieces of media, or even to share computer code or artistic expression as part of business or educational community
>Article 11 would require anyone on the internet to copyright license in order to post quotes or snippets of news. This would not only be expensive, but hard to manage for each and every publication. Instead of getting a license, it makes more sense to just ban conversation that could violate this new copyright law. Imagined as a way to get journalism more money, Article 11 goes against how we comment on, and share, knowledge on the internet. The inability to reference and link to sources would make news all the more unreliable, being unable to to quote and attribute reliably sources without going through a legal process.

Doesn't surprise me.
For organizations like the EU who want to control everything that can possibly be controlled a more or less anarchic internet is a complete nightmare. Damn Eurocrats taking away our freedom bit by bit.

Doubt that'll get through

>Allow glyphosate
>Implements ridiculous copyright laws

Remind me how the EU is less of a plutocracy than the US?

>Article 11
Protection of press publications concerning digital uses
1.
Member States shall provide publishers of press publications with the rights provided for in Article 2 and Article 3(2) of Directive 2001/29/EC for the digital use of their press publications.
2.
The rights referred to in paragraph 1 shall leave intact and shall in no way affect any rights provided for in Union law to authors and other rightholders, in respect of the works and other subject-matter incorporated in a press publication. Such rights may not be invoked against those authors and other rightholders and, in particular, may not deprive them of their right to exploit their works and other subject-matter independently from the press publication in which they are incorporated.
3.
Articles 5 to 8 of Directive 2001/29/EC and Directive 2012/28/EU shall apply mutatis mutandis in respect of the rights referred to in paragraph 1.
4.
The rights referred to in paragraph 1 shall expire 20 years after the publication of the press publication. This term shall be calculated from the first day of January of the year following the date of publication.

How does what you said follow from the actual text? Genuinely curious.

I'd have said the same about it getting through the committee yet here we are.

>Article 11 was passed with a narrow majority 12:13.
>Article 13 was passed with 10:15.

The other article. It tries to be carefully worded, but how the courts will interpret it...

Article 13
Use of protected content by information society service providers storing and giving access to large amounts of works and other subject-matter uploaded by their users
1.
Information society service providers that store and provide to the public access to large amounts of works or other subject-matter uploaded by their users shall, in cooperation with rightholders, take measures to ensure the functioning of agreements concluded with rightholders for the use of their works or other subject-matter or to prevent the availability on their services of works or other subject-matter identified by rightholders through the cooperation with the service providers. Those measures, such as the use of effective content recognition technologies, shall be appropriate and proportionate. The service providers shall provide rightholders with adequate information on the functioning and the deployment of the measures, as well as, when relevant, adequate reporting on the recognition and use of the works and other subject-matter.
2.
Member States shall ensure that the service providers referred to in paragraph 1 put in place complaints and redress mechanisms that are available to users in case of disputes over the application of the measures referred to in paragraph 1.
3.
Member States shall facilitate, where appropriate, the cooperation between the information society service providers and rightholders through stakeholder dialogues to define best practices, such as appropriate and proportionate content recognition technologies, taking into account, among others, the nature of the services, the availability of the technologies and their effectiveness in light of technological developments.

I fully support their implementation.
None should be making money out of my memes.

It isn't, also thank for electing a EU blow-up doll nuliberal banker as your president just to ensure that its existence will be artificially prolonged even further

I know people yell "censorship" even when it comes to pixelated bars over cartoon peepees but all I'm seeing here is an attempt to enforce intellectual property rights rather than effort to curtail freedom of speech (even though it may well be an unintended side effect if the courts take a hardline stance when adjudicating)

It's a pity there's no real initiative to replace the intellectual property model with something more socialistic when it comes to information.

It limits the flow of information and gives more power to big news publishers. It's absolutely horrendous.

Indirect democracy unavoidably ends up becoming a plutocracy. What folks seem to not understand is that great ammounts of money can become a form of political power by briding politicians or by putting your own puppets in positions of power. At the end, indirect democracy becomes a competition between different lobbies. The most scary thing is that these people mold our reality as they wish since most of the media is indirectly/ directly controlled by richfags with personal agendas.

Can you elaborate and back it up with sources?

The anti-freedom of speech potential here is huge. And if there is potential, someone will try to use it that way. No doubt people will quickly find a way around it, but the fact they're trying to implement something like this is reason enough to worry.

>and back it up with sources?
Can't, don't have money to pay the link tax.

Welcome to America land of “freedumb”

desu only realistic potential for restricting free speech that I see here is that some service providers will get bullied into shutting their operation, but actually doing so would have backlash effect towards whoever did the bullying; and it could be done even now. Publishers can just act on behalf of the authors, and even in the new regulation the rights of authors are untouched. But perhaps my thinking is just not twisted enough to envisage some exceptionally perfidious scheme.

What backlash? Just sell it as "racist populist eurosceptics were threatening our beautiful union so we had to shut down the servers" and most of the public in EU core sates will accept it

If you take France as an exmaple, any site can be blocked with the excuse of CP, with no proofs needed or even a judge decision.
Now they just changed the CP excuse for a copyright excuse.

Good, I hope all of you are arrested for racebait and soy memes

I don't give a fuck
Internet can die for all I care.
It would probably be the final straw that would lead to my suicide.

I will still be there for you, even after eurocucks go to jail

NERB BUSTRALITY
