Re: [Wikimedia-l] European Copyright Law

At the moment this is just second step of legislation process, not the
final vote on directive. Namely,  the voting today was for EU Parliament
negotiation possition during  trilogue discussions in order to adopt a
definitive text which will then be voted again at Parliament.So, we should
now push our local EU countries goverments as well EU Commission itself to
to make substantial changes' proposals for this law, before final voting.

Oh, wow. Interesting how that passed pretty quietly compared to the proposal in 
May. I don’t think I saw anything reminding us about it over on English 
Wikipedia.

The Wikimedia Foundation wrote up a blog post with potential consequences 
earlier this year: 
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2018/06/29/eu-copyright-proposal-will-hurt-web-wikipedia/

I’m not an expert, but I think there was some kind of exemption in Article 13 
for projects like Wikipedia, so that it doesn’t have to do the upload filters – 
could someone fact check me on that?

[Wikimedia-l] European Copyright Law

If I understand correctly, the European parliament just approved the
copyright law essentially without changes, thus supporting the version we
protested against in May. What would be the consequences for us?
