European Union may pass law that could lead to this site being unusable

I’m not exactly sure as to if this has any relation to the EUCD or TERREG but it might be worth a read:

The following is a link to a petition to Protect End to End Encryption in the EU:

France and Spain “argued that any conflict between the fundamental rights of rightholders and users must always be resolved in favour of rightholders.”
 
That’s fucking right, France and Spain literally said that “some are more equal than others” in relation to the issue of Article 13/17.
 
WHAT THE SERIOUS FUCK?
 
Anyway, we have a report on the CJEU hearing of Poland’s case:

German Content Creators make a statement relating to the situation of Upload Filters:

A tweet from Communia relating to French Implementation:
 
“🥐☕️🇫🇷 #copyright implementation update: The French delegation law authorising the government to implement the remaining parts of the DSM directive has been published: https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/jorf/id/JORFTEXT000042607095
 
The @MinistereCC now has until 3 June 2021 to issue a decree implementing #article17”

You’ll need to translate the article the link leads you to but there’s many programs to easily get that done with.

A very important tweet from Julia relating to Article 17:
 
https://twitter.com/senficon/status/1335855800837935106?s=21
 
English translation:
 
Springerverlag, Günther Oettinger & record labels are currently lobbying for all user rights from the implementation of #Artikel17 to delete, for which we took to the streets! Your campaign doesn’t take the truth seriously:

Oh boy, this isn’t good news:
 
https://twitter.com/senficon/status/1336681527212728320?s=21
 
Translation:
 
The lobby campaign by Springer, Oettinger & co. has worked! The #GroKo postpones the decision on copyright reform because #Artikel17 the #niemehrCDU is not radical enough yet. The CDU ignores its own decision against #Uploadfilter :
 
/end
 
Now how did they even get away with that? Commission Guidelines clearly demand user rights be respected so something has to be wrong here.
 
I swear to god they’re asking for lawsuits.

Update on TERREG by Dr. Patrick Breyer:  
https://twitter.com/echo_pbreyer/status/1337089493015334912?s=21
 
“The trilogue is over, #TERREG is coming!  
⛔ Victor Orban will be deleting content in your country  
✅ Clear exception for media, arts, science etc.  
✅ Exception from 1h deadline for small providers  
✅ Clear exclusion of mandatory #uploadfilters”  
More:

Finally some news after a period of silence:
 
Finnish Article 17 implementation proposal prohibits the use of automated upload filters
 
“The Finnish government is the third government to make it clear that simply transposing the language of Article 17 into national legislation is not a viable option to implement the directive in a fundamental rights preserving way.”

Not about the EUCD or TERREG but something I think that should be shared:
 
EU Study Proposes New ‘Anti-Piracy Act’ to Effectively Tackle Online Piracy

I hate to be the bearer of badnews but I feel this is important to share here as well.. and this happened here in the USA

New Article from COMMUNIA relating to Article 17:
 
https://www.communia-association.org/2021/01/07/dsm-directive-implementation-update-more-proposals-to-protect-users-rights/

The TERREG has been voted on today:
 
The following text comes from a Tweet by LIBE Committee Press:
 
”.EP_Justice confirms 54/13/1 the outcome of negotiations with EUCouncil on #terreg addressing terrorist content online, rap. @PatrykJaki:
 
➡️1h to remove terrorist content with safeguards  
➡️educational/journalistic/research exceptions  
➡️no general obligation to filter content”
 
https://twitter.com/ep_justice/status/1348705601577250816?s=21
 
User echo_pbreyer points out the following in a response tweet:
 
“Despite the achievements listed, #TERREG’s ultra-fast removal orders without prior judicial/independent review come with a high risk of abuse and have striking similarities to the unconstitutional French Avia law, likely violating fundamental rights.”

Some news:
 
The 🇩🇪 government has just approved the implementation package for the new #copyright directive. It now be discussed in the Bundestag (parliament). The proposal contains a number of important user rights safeguards, but they are much weaker than in the proposal from last summer.

A new article from COMMUNIA focusing on the French Interpretation of the EUCD:
 
https://www.communia-association.org/2021/02/04/france-once-more-fails-to-demonstrate-support-for-its-interpretation-of-article-17/

Currently, EU member states have 3 months left to implemen the EU Copyright Directive and many members are taking different approaches in how they intend to do so.
 
COMMUNA will be holding a Salon on the 17th of March on Germany’s proposal:

Just a reminder on the TERREG:

@CaptainXtra  
Here’s a petition. Spread.

Two things to share:
 
First off, The EU Commission’s guidance on Article 17 could be presented on the 19th of April.
 
Secondly, Poland’s Complaint against Article 17 has apparently been rescheduled to July 15th/17th for an unknown reason.

Here’s an info dump!
 
First, we have news that the EU Commission will delay publishing their guidelines for the EUCD for an unspecified date in the coming weeks so nothing is gonna be said today:
 
https://twitter.com/elawnora/status/1384151924442681347?s=21
 
Next, a reminder that the EP TERREG vote will be around April 28-29th so please write to your MEP’s to make sure their making the right choice.
 
Lastly, I’ve mentioned this before but I’ll bring it up again:
 
Poland’s case against Article 17 which was supposed to be on the 22nd of this month has been pushed back to July.
