YouTube Is Now Running Pop-Ups To Warn EU Viewers About Article 13 - Tubefilter
YouTube is continuing its all-out siege against Article 13 -- a soon-to-be-approved copyright regulation across the European Union that would shift the burden of copyright policing directly to content platforms. While numerous execs including Susan Wojcicki, Robert Kyncl, and Lyor Cohen have...www.tubefilter.com

How will Article 13 impact Twitch? | Dot Esports
There's still time to change the copyright law.dotesports.com
Then of course the whole #saveyourinternet movement.
Is there any reason why this is under DSP? I would not think it would effect him unless these sites just decide to punish everyone because of the EU. I cannot find anything about them being blocked from viewing the site as much as certain content being restricted from them.
What these articles seem to be saying is that the websites would have to go through extra steps to restrict EU visitors, and so it could be concluded it might just be easier to block those in the EU rather than bother with the restrictions.

He has repeatedly claimed EU viewers will need a VPN to use Twitch. I can't believe that, because it's about upload filters.
He claimed 20% of his viewerbase was from Europe today but take that with a grain of salt.
He doesn't have a "high" viewerbase anywhere, but I do think a substantial proportion of his whales are from the EU.Does anyone know if he has a high viewer base from the EU?
Many European countries rejected the articles. The problem is that since the laws have already been approved the only thing the EU parliament could do was putting everything on hold waiting for the European elections (23-26 May) so until then nobody will be affected. Consider that even if the articles get accepted by the single states each one of them has to write their own laws to enforce them so it might take months or even years before seeing an actual effect on the internet
You can refuse to implement EU laws (see eastern European countries's stance on immigration quotas) the drawback is that you're seen as a "contrarian" so you have to deal with constant pressure from other states (usually Germany and France), reduced influence in the European parliament and reduced investements from the EU on local projects. In this case the article is not a law but more of a guideline so every state that chooses to adopt it has to write its own set of laws that may be different from its neighbor countries. This might lead to a clusterfuck where something blocked in Belgium may be allowed in Germany and vice versaThis might get into some deep territory, but does any country part of the EU have to accept article 13? Or is there some penalty for not doing so? I am in the US, and so I am unaware how much autonomy EU countries have when he comes to EU laws.
do you want this sub forum to die?Not seeing e-begging manchildren anymore who whine about how their lives are hard, while they sit on their asses and flail their arms?

So in other words, the EU is incapable of actually making and enforcing laws.You can refuse to implement EU laws (see eastern European countries's stance on immigration quotas) the drawback is that you're seen as a "contrarian" so you have to deal with constant pressure from other states (usually Germany and France), reduced influence in the European parliament and reduced investements from the EU on local projects.
