Article 13
-
Interesting, I get feeling it is one of those laws which will cause more problems while not solving the intended issue... like most of my plans works in theory only...
Pretty sure you are right. How the hell do you manage the content. How do you figure out what is legit and what is not. Did the politicians really consider the impact. Did the do a TRUMP.

Article 13 has now been approved by the EU. I can't work out if this is a good thing or a bad thing. I've been reading articles about it, and there seem to be both pros and cons to this new EU legislation. European Parliament backs copyright changes - BBC News[^] What do others think?
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare Home | LinkedIn | Google+ | Twitter
I think the EU is a veritable walking dead man, brought to its knees by Poland and not the UK. Article 7 was invoked and is unenforceable since Hungary (which has gone the same route politically as Poland) will veto any further action. This makes the EU, as a political entity, untenable. So glad that the UK is leaving. EU gives Poland new deadline for rule of law deal | Reuters[^] Poland will just keep ignoring the diktats of Brussels since it knows they can't do anything about it other than posture. What a shambles. [admins] feel free to move to soapbox - an interesting subject to debate, possibly.
Keep your friends close. Keep Kill your enemies closer. The End

Hungary might actually lose their voting rights, so that will take care of the veto. [EU Parliament votes to trigger Article 7 sanctions procedure against Hungary | News | DW | 12.09.2018](https://www.dw.com/en/eu-parliament-votes-to-trigger-article-7-sanctions-procedure-against-hungary/a-45459720)

I don't see how it could. A reasonable court would see compliance as an undue burden to a very small company, one would hope. In terms of audience, Developer Media isn't on the same playing field as Google or Facebook.

I fear you could be wrong. I was reading that the legislation applies to ALL sites up to a certain size (a certain number of registered users is being touted as the benchmark for implementing the legislation). Above that size, you must implement it.

Since you put it that way, it could very well put CodeProject square inside their limits. But, to counter that, automatically filtering all content we post on this site in regards to code is physically impossible unless all code with a copywrite is known before hand and I doubt and of the FAANG companies or Microsoft will give up any of their secrets.

Except YouTube already has the infrastructure in place to comply. In fact, they comply with it so efficiently that they'll take down content you own just because a large media corp claims that they own it. :doh: Family Guy Used NES Game Footage From YouTube, Then Claimed Copyright on Same Video - GameSpot[^] Smaller companies trying to challenge YouTube probably wouldn't be able to afford to implement a similar automated enforcement tool, making it almost impossible for them to compete. (Assuming the regulations actually apply to small sites. But who decides what's "small"?) I'm still waiting to see whether it will apply to sites like CodeProject, and how the hamsters will cope with having to run every single word anyone posts through a massive database of copyright claims before allowing it to appear. :~

"Sorry but copyright on 'Object not set to an instance of an object' belongs to someone else." Might not be a bad thing...

Well, this take on it doesn't sound particularly promising: Europe just voted to wreck the internet, spying on everything and censoring vast swathes of our communications / Boing Boing[^]

As most of the political incitatives last years... it is a relative good idea, that is going to be misused and will make a hell of a mess.
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

And that is why the whole thing is a BS money-grab. It's only a law for people with deep pockets? Can they be any more blatant?

And of course the EU would never actually throw a country out, so all it can do is pull funding.

A shame. Satire should never be limited, it is the health and life blood of a modern country!

Wouldn't that be quite efficient enough?

It depends on the countries revenue, how much it pays to the EU, and how much it receives. Of course the country could always threaten to ditch the Euro if it was too adversely affected. This would be such a shock to the EU that it would soon give in.

That's a balance of €3 Billion. And €8.5 for Poland.
