[QUOTE="Old Man Jingles, post: 4006371, member: 18222"] [B]Europe passes new copyright law[/B] For an overview of changes brought forth by the Copyright Directive, straight from the European Commission, go [URL='http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_MEMO-19-1849_en.htm']here[/URL]. But the two clauses that caused the most hubbub are articles 11 and 13. Article 11 says that search engines and news aggregators must pay news websites for using snippets of their content. Article 13 says tech companies such as Google and Facebook are responsible for copyrighted material posted on their services without a proper license. Article 13 effectively transfers responsibility for posting copyrighted content from the user to the platform (you've likely seen something similar in action when YouTube mutes a video because it used a copyrighted song). But if platforms are to police the content, it's possible that they'll simply ban certain types of content altogether using so-called upload filters, ultimately stifling creativity and freedom of expression.
