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

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.

Memes will be treated just like remixed songs. If you take a photo of your grandma and post it on instagram, would you like some little shit from reddit to have the right to take your photo and upload it on reddit with a caption and make a meme out of it? If that happens now you can issue a copyright take down of the image or depending of the site, ask for money for it's use.

seems more like an anti-clickbait law passed for sites like faceberg
