Every national front and right wing MEP voted against the art.13
Only the disproportionate LREM and socialists voted for it but it's now, democratically cancelled. Another decision will take place in september anyways and will, sadly but certainly override the democratic process, the EU is doing it for every decision.
The proposed law was rejected by 318 votes to 278, with 31 abstentions.
The real intent of this law is globally to enforce more control on the internet. Memes and fanarts being targeted are the emerging part of the (((iceberg))):
- On the term this causes a lot of legal changes to the users of free software
- Royalty free and public domain will now be able to be seized and copyrighted
- The EFF has a lot of concerns about the EU, prior to this the bullshit privacy measures, there is in fact; no privacy things, only a warning that ensure everyone consent to be exploited even monitored without any single legal backup.
- Art.13 places the EU in a form of authority that overrides the WIPO, in sorts, and ensure the corporations have more rights than they should have on content. including the overriding of every right to own a private copy or archives.
- This implies censoring or attributing some quotes, videos or content.
- Quoting or linking a media source or any will be subject to copyright enforcement.
- Private companies, just like the HADOPI will be required to monitor and enforce the laws issued by the directive generated by the article 13 of the EU on copyright and information
- The primary goal of this directive is censorship and nothing else.
Even more insane, text, publications or books which contains quotes or copyrighted content, even quotes from politicians will be considered a public infrigement and therefore subject to censorship. All of this is proposed under the coming up enforcements under this art.13 and will have to be fought.
With this, and trust me the EU will pass it regardless; it will happen.
If Mr. Fragile Pony had some balls to resist this dictatorship and be the victim, he would join us.
>>157355Maybe because we have legitimate reasons to complain and express about the technocracy being installed here. And what is happening is not fiction, our last medium of expression remains here, on anonymous imageboards as social networks are subject to banning, and even at some point someone can be arrested or investigated for their opinions in France, Germany, Belgium and of course, UK which should no longer be in the EU since a while.
This is a dictatorship, a dream for the socialist who needs to silence the opposition because the media are efficient -but not totally-.
How many whithheld accounts or sites are blocked? You should go figure.
What makes me cringe is the human waste calling trump a fascist. What is going on with the left here is what real fascism is, by definition.
>>157795The only way to stop this at this point is a european-wide revolt. And this will be legitimate. But seeing how the masses are being controlled just by a fucking soccer world cup, something tells me the victory will be hard.
We are at the point weak men created hard times.
