The text of Article13 and the EU Copyright Directive has just been finalised and it's utterly awful. It is clear what we do now: contact MEPs and get them to vote down the entire package.

Our best bet: The final vote in the plenary of the European Parliament, when all 751 MEPs, directly elected to represent the people, have a vote. This will take place either between March 25 and 28, on April 4 or between April 15 and 18. We've already demonstrated last July that a majority against a bad copyright proposal is achievable.

    yes! "Fuck you, I got mine!" is the principle we should all live on.

    That straw man was coming right for us!

    If you don't have anything constructive to add to the discussion, at least don't pollute it with defective ideas.

    Good idea.
