This is so fucking retarded, written by people who don't fucking understand the internet or how technology works. It's a giant fucking magic black box to them and they think they can legislate on it. How the fuck are things uploaded to the internet going to be checked against a database of copyrighted works exactly? Who's responsible for deep packet analysis for memes? Who the fuck is going to maintain this "database"? How are people going to access it? Will there be an API? This whole thing is super fucking retarded.

The EU cracks me up, because they don't bother to actually conclude any of their laws feasability to implement. Instead, they put the burden on the vendors.

In other words, it was never intended to be followed to begin with and is their loophole way of simply banning things they don't like while deflecting the reasons and blame. They're exceptionally good at it because the EU public are pussified unarmed lemmings with no rights living in a totalitarian nanny state.

Fuck 'em.
