Thanks, TFG. That makes sense now.
Let’s hope that those MEPs who pledged to reject the new Copyright Directive stay true to their word. They probably only pledged this just to get the public to stop nagging at them. And if that’s true, then we could be in trouble.
And to be honest, I’m typing this in bed because I currently am feeling sick. My voice lost many octaves recently and I have been having a dry mouth feeling. Not even water could rid that feeling.

“If the title to this story is true, it smells like someone needs to change the grease in the fryer”
To be honest, I don’t quite understand what ‘changing the grease in the fryer” is supposed to imply. Today’s my first say on Techdirt (though I have read articles about this Copyright Directive controversy), so I am kind of new to this whole ‘putting my opinion for millions to see’ thing.
But if I’m correct (which I’m probably not) about what you’re saying, then it probably would be more fair if the governments listened to the truth that big companies shouldn’t control what the government does, and that the government shouldn’t ignore the people they’re supposed to govern.
And i know that there are more than two sides to every argument, and I respect that. And I don’t plan on hurting anyone’s feelings.
If eventually Youtube, Google, Facebook, Twitter, and basically most of these sites shut down due to unrecoverable bankruptcy (due to Article 13 forcing them to lose millions of dollars), then someone’s trying to close the internet up. Perhaps someone who said he wanted to close the internet up when he ran for president. The same person who put Ajit Pai into office (which led to the repeal of Net Neutrality).
Someone by the name of...
DONALD TRUMP!
(And by the way, I’m not democratic or republican.)
“The government doesn’t seem to care that it is promoting things that would harm citizens”
That seems to be happening way too often these past years. The Net Neutrality repeal occurred despite millions of people arguing against the repeal. And I think that it gave many governments the wrong idea and they too are ignoring their own citizens’ rights.
Seeing how the European Union is ignoring the will of the people feels very similar to what happened with the FCC. If you remember, FCC’s Ajit Pai ignored millions of outcries and was hellbent on repealing Net Neutrality, because ISPs were whining that they weren’t getting enough money. Without Net Neutrality, our internet would turn into a highway traffic where our internet would be throttled and tampered with.
Similarily, Axel Voss and those supporting this wretched Article 13 are being “seduced” by big media companies that are whining because they don’t have enough money. And just like Ajit Pai, they also decieved the public and ignored the will of its people. It really makes me think that there’s a bigger picture to this. And the fact that they’re calling us “brainwashed” makes it more likely that the EU is the one being brainwashed.
