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

It sounds more like the filters will be deployed to all social media sites, but those sites' admins won't be the ones actually administering those filters. Instead they will be global filters administered by some EU officials.

no. EU law requires national administrators to execute law.

And you think this is some kind of big hurdle? It just means they have one more bureaucrat per country, so it's more tax money to pay.

That's how they sell it to you, yes. And there is even some truth to it. But it's far from the only reason, and maybe not even the primary reason.
