as we saw with GDPR it will be implemented across internet no matter where you are

vote in EU parliament 20.06.2018

i'm better off blocking EU nations than paying link taxes

you don't understand.... big platforms enforce this rules on all ...

since they don't want to pay EU

they deemed responsible for all published on their platforms...

Wow. That petition from yesterday wasn't a fake after all.

I'm known on Jeff Holiday's server for just finding the most bizarre shit.

@athene big platforms would only enforce it to all IF there was still money in dealing business in the EU. Between GDPR and this, it might just make them go "well, fuck the EU. cost of business is too high"

>porn school gun violence

ummm......

nah... they will implement filters

facebook thought they met the rules for GDPR.... and was then hit with a bunch of lawsuits they now need to pay to deal with.

btw just came across this article that might interest creators:

it would easier for them to either drop the EU, or disable all links, delete anything with x.xx, and not allow uploads

small lawsuits against billions they might pay EU

its their politics ... implement rules through money pressure...

there is 710 mil ppl in EU28

thats it?

just to put my conspiracy hat on for a sec... I wonder if the EU wanted US businesses like twitter and facebook to stop working in the EU, so an EU alternative could appear

they are incredibly protectionist

at this rate, china might be easy for facebook to get into, and more financially beneficial

wacka i think not... to much debate and opinions crossing the pond

fuck, investing in infrastructure in india might a better investment than changes this drastic to their system.

ppl became restless

@wacka no, socialist just don't understand that business are not made of free money (just like they don't understand the people they tax are not a piggy bank either), and that changes cost money. both for the government and companies.

its opposite acctually... repressing new players more likely... policy, platforms, media etc

global players established... no need for new distruptive patterens to appear i guess

my conspiracy theory hat 😉

however, given how potentially far reaching, it could put most internet sites out of business. which could, in theory, result in pressures from all over the world to repeal their policy.

also could lead to some sites boycotting the EU.

proactivity is always better than reacting... as now.... if you are proactive you prepare all that necessary for your idea... others can only be cought offguard and hastly react + not forsee all consequencess

i wonder what the potential for international fallout might be.

i mean, with GDPR, most people were more or less fine with it. But fair use? that is controversial. People are always pushing that boundary

and the US failing media?

anyway internet infuencers should talk about it since they are the ones under attack the most.... others will survive... that is why there is silence about it

well private buisness can do what they like in US
