New EU copyright directive

Post by Chilly Willy » Tue Mar 26, 2019 1:24 pm

Given the passage of the new EU directive with both articles 11 and 13, how long until the forum is removed? I rather doubt SpritesMind can afford a filter, nor spend the time manually approving every post. It's too bad, but all our EU friends are going to be lost for the next few years until they can get the new laws repealed after seeing how much damage they do their economy. :cry:

The article still needs to be implemented by laws on a per-country basis. On top of that, it turns out somebody slipped their finger and made the wrong vote and that one wrong vote actually changed the result, and the EU won't let the vote to be rectified… so expect quite the scandal coming soon :​O)

I imagine at this point, most people are going to take a wait and see stance on this. I really hope it doesn't affect SpritesMind - it's my home away from home. :D
