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

Yeah @Grenade123 i hope trump says something about it

trump needs to cut the money us is pumping into eu

So I wonder how this immediately affects Sargon's videos.

Or.. is there a date where it comes into effect

Maybe the EU will collapse before implementation

Hopefully ^

The rest of the Eastern Block dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate EU

OH FUCK

I JUST HAD A THOUGHT

We know the EU is getting more authoritarian right?

What if the link tax is so much so that smaller countries find it increasingly expensive to actually run news networks

*and they set up centralised EU news channels*

i'm wondering if all the news orgs will find this doesn't benefit them like they thought.

and i wonder if that is the goal to make the EUPN

EU propaganda Network

I think so

So now Hungary case will go for a vote among EU countries leaders, i think Italy and Poland will block it

Thank fuck for Brexit, just gotta get out of the UK before the EU invades, woop woop

Unless they would decide to exlude Poland from voting

Time to learn German boiiiiiii

Ok so the EU just decided to kill the internet

Which would be master dick move, but also very smart move

EU already has state news
