THIS IS FUCKING BIG YOU RETARDS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directive_on_Copyright_in_the_Digital_Single_Market
Alright guys, was a honor to shitpost with you all, but sadly the EU has finally sold itself completely to the NWO. Today at about 12 pm UTC the EU parliament will vote for the new copyright directive, which effectively places every single website under the obligation to implement upload filters.
They did it, they finally did it, they are going to destroy the internet we all love and will censor our opinions. The European part of 4chan is going to die.
I will miss you, and to all you Britbongs, leave the EU as fast as you can, save yourselves, we might live on through you.
THEY PASSED IT ALL, ALL EURO POSTERS WILL SOON LOSE ACCESS TO 4CHAN AND 8CHAN AND MANY MANY SITES
THEY PASSED THE WAY 20 MINUTES AGO

OH SHIT NO MORE MEMES
I might also be charged for sharing this link

Except that's not how it works, nigger. Pic related are actual amendments in article 13 which say that memes are allowed, along with links and other shit. I invite every single crying cuckchanner in this thread to read the article, then you'll realize that it's fucking nothing. Article 13 mainly fucks over big corporations, and the biggest change is the introduction of a Fair Use system in the EU, which doesn't actually change a lot of how things work.

The fucking problem is that NONE of the amendments for the actual Article 13 passed, you fucking faggot. Article 13 passed in its raw form without any modification.

Does it mean places like reddit, 9gag etc are fucked because about 99% of the shit on there is someone else's content that some 12yr old stole and posted.

Everytime someone says this shit goes bad real quick and fucks over everyone.

OH so they are basically forcing original content? About fucking time, there only so many times I can be bothered to sift through 300 WEBMs to find the 5 new posts ever couple of days.

They're enforcing censorship of wrongthink, under the guise of copyright protection. Putting the censorship system into place is the first step. Then it can be used to block rare pepe memes, or porn, or other things entirely like bad goy videos (even if those abide by the copyright laws). Once the system is in place, they'll do wtf they want with it.

Yeah the positives to this, is corporate shilling will become harder from Europe, or if you see shilling done with copyrighted memes or products (boomer + monster drink, unreleased movies or movies in theaters now) you know it's a corporate shill.
Atleast they don't get free advertising from Yuropoors. But those filters could be so very oopsiedoopsied to include symbols, phrases, words, certain people and so on.
The good does not outweigh the terrible by a long shot in this.
