It's a shame religion has made it... lame.

Don't worry I won't come to the USA until I can actually contribute to the country

I will not be a leech on a country I admire

Sad part is that most european citizen doesnt give a fuck about EU parliament

As well as laws that is being pushed thru it

"we just wanted to play games, but you fucked with us and now we are here"

Hey so what do you guys think will happen? Will international online companies comply or pull out?

Facebook will comply, and perhaps Google. I don't think smaller companies are going to be able to.

This legislation seems to have been created with the capabilities of the biggest firms in mind, and the idea of bullying smaller firms into surrendering control over content to the biggest firms.

If you run a phpBB forum, you can't possibly identify AND remove copyrighted material within one hour.

if you have a closed forum it cant be reported

So they'll have to get some sort of plugin that outsources the burden of identifying copyrighted material to some massive firm with a huge AI.

Google has bots that crawl the internet for copyrighted material.

watch even google get fucked over

willing to bet the EU will not be happy with youtubes system

No Google already has a turnkey solution for this.

they want to destroy the open internet

and the open discource

only allowed speech will be legal

enjoy europeans

enjoy near everyone

fuck, say goodbye to videogame mods

But yeah ^ the big concern would be once the infrastructure is in place this would be worse than 1984's telescreens for thought policing.

Fuck

It appears Article 11 passed as well. Smaller firms can't possibly pay per link.

This solidifies big tech monopoly.

thought dank said all other articles failed

It's a massive burden on any start-up to comply with this nonsense, moral issues aside.

oh, almost all

let me get link

can like the US file a lawsuit against the EU for this if it affects too many Americans?

This is where corporations will run the world be prepared guys at least we will have some cyberpunk 2077 or weyland yutani

too bad this doesn't affect fox and friends or else we could get trump to threaten war

As long as america does this same, this horseshit cannot possibly be permanent.

Too much envy.

wait.. it passed.... hoo boy

Funeral for free speech in Talk Room 1 lol

*2

Yeah @Grenade123 i hope trump says something about it
