URGENT: EU Copyright Directive Update
Posted: 11 Jun 2018, 21:06
If you live in the EU, there is VERY soon (20 June 2018) a vote in the EU Parliament going on about a new EU Copyright Directive.
It might have huge implications and has some really nasty articles in it.
Other people can explain far better than me what is currently going on in the EU.
Please spread the word!
