2019-02-15 05:33 69810992 Anonymous European Parliament approves controversial "meme ban" (tomcruisekek.jpg 800x450 61kB)
https://www.independent.co.uk/life- style/gadgets-and-tech/news/eu-copy right-rules-new-article-11-13-youtu be-google-meme-ban-a8779101.html >The final wording of dramatic and wide-ranging copyright rules that campaigners say could fundamentally alter the way the internet works has been decided, the EU has announced. >The new regime has been accused of forcing companies to “ban memes” as it transforms the way people are able to share information online. Companies such as Google have intensely criticised the rules – with YouTube suggesting it could even have to ban Europeans from uploading videos entirely. >According to lead critic, German MEP Julia Reda, this would mean commercial sites and apps will have to preemptively buy licences for anything a user uploads, a move she describes as “an impossible feat”. Top fucking kek! Eurosharias are unironically going to need posting loicenses starting next month. And I thought that we had it bad enough here in Australia

>>69811145 >what's the EU going to do next ban comedy? Not sure but didn't someone get arrested and persecuted in some Europoor shithole for making a simply nazi joke with his dog? As much as I may hate living in Argentina, some of the things I hear happening in Europe make me realise that not all is bad.

>>69811163 In Germany yes it is literally illegal to say the Holocaust didn't happen or to celebrate Nazis in any way shape or form Frankly its idiocy, even if you disagree with those ideologies to persecute someone based on thoughts or speech is dangerous to a free society

>>69810992 The revised article states that >Service providers will try their best to prevent illegal sharing. >If copyright holders don't report unauthorized sharing, then service provider is not liable. This is exactly what is already being done, so the article has no effect whatsoever.

It has not been voted on yet, just the actual proposition that's been finalized.

1 hours later 69811920 Anonymous
>>69811882 Not precisely. Upload providers and ISPs haven't previously been liable, they only had to cooperate with courts in order to identify malicious users. Now they're liable to fines themselves if they're not making an active effort to prevent sharing of copyrighted material.

>>69810992 relax, that law is unworkable, and besides which here are what it takes for an EU directive to be enforced 1) The member states must individually decide if they will enforce it - some may some wont, my guess is most will ignore the directive 2) this directive will only be used when governments or the EU want to clutch at straws 3) even if the member states do enforce it, it will only be the same as a DMCA takedown. That is all it amounts to 4) take a photo of your asshole. Licence the photo but sign the licence as belonging to Guy Verhofstadt. He will then be placed in the predicament of owning photos of your ass hole

>>69814680 That law was about producing porn in the UK. I think it was stuff that implies or is harmful to the actors, squirting/fisting/slapping/large insertion kind of things. It was as stupid as the other laws that seem to get passed in uk/EU these days with swathing thought accusations and imposible policing tasks.
