Wtf is this? >The losers from this proposal are fourfold. Perhaps the biggest losers are the creators themselves, who will face new barriers between their art and their fans and collaborators. The streaming services will also lose out, as they will face higher expenses and will no longer be able to operate non-commercially even if they only carry freely licensed content. Fans, of course, will suffer because of the reduced legal availability of free music and video online. And even the copyright industry will suffer, as the increased costs of legal streaming services may cause creators and fans to shift back to peer to peer file sharing, where copyright infringing works are also exchanged. Yeah, sure, we are going to make tremendous bullshit law like data retention directive, we'll just force everyone into no-brain fuckery how our masters play. Puppets. And no awakening on horizon.
UK sucks even more, there's no way for you to escape economical politics. Leave or stay: I can't say what's worse..

So what possible reason do they have to make it unwaiveable? Why do they assume no one wants their work to spread for the sake of spreading their message?
Nolan Hernandez
You're right, we should just sit here and take it instead. That is a much more sensible solution.
Nathan Rodriguez
hey, at least you got millions of africans and muslims to compensate for these shit laws, rite?
guns solve everything. and it keeps in check those in power.
enjoy further descent into a police state as more and more nutjobs drive your people over with trucks and shit and all you retards are unable to stop them because of your "libtard values".
quit wasting time on Sup Forums. go back to studying arabic and praying to aloha.

Currenyly the police is only allowed to intervene if copyright holders request it. They want to change this so that streaming would be only legal if certain conditions are met, which should give police more room to operate in.
>clapistanian >try to revolt >if army is against you then they'll mow you down with superior equipment and tactics >if army supports you then you don't need guns for anything
Asher Hill
So a website streams freely licensed videos, for free, which the authors are 100% okay with them doing, and the police should intervene in this case? Who's being protected here? Who's asking for this?
Ryan Allen
>Currently the police is only allowed to intervene if copyright holders request it. They want to change this so that streaming would be only legal if certain conditions are met, which should give police more room to operate in.

READ THE FUCKING ARTICLE BEFORE YOU COMMENT, RETARDS
1. Member States shall ensure that, when authors and performers transfer or assign the right of making available to the public of their works or other subject-matter for online on-demand services, they retain the right to obtain fair remuneration derived from the direct exploitation of their works present in the catalogue of those services.
2. The right of an author or performer to obtain fair remuneration for the making available of his/her work as described in paragraph 1 cannot be waived.
It literally just says that the author always retains the rights to monetize their work, regardless of license. How does this change anything?

Why aren't Americans using their guns to keep their politicians in check? >But Trump is acting how I want him to How about during the Obama years then, assuming you disliked what he was doing? There was plenty to be displeased with when he was around anyway, even if you liked him.
Just admit it, you don't want guns because they'll keep others in their place. You just want them because they look cool and you like firing them, and not a whole lot more.
Jace Rivera
during obongo years, americans bought millions upon millions of guns. they were too scared to fuck with gun owners after that.
stay cucked, mohammed.

Guns only show up in political situations when people feel their issue cannot be solved peaceably through the system, it's not about chimping out every time there's a political disagreement you fucking subhuman.

Is it true that a free Kekistan is not in the interest of the United States and/or Israel? Would an unironical declaration of independence result in "bringing democracy" to Kekistan by one of the usual methods?

How is Russia going to cope with islamization? Birth rates of ethnic Russians are low as fuck, they don't want to join the army and pay not to, while muslims living in Russia do the opposite, they will pay to join the army. How is this going to end well?

I can call her election caller, but not elected when she was making descisions without any proper mandate.
Tyler Bennett
Which she is now getting by calling a fucking election
>If a government where to introduce this, they could be voted out in favour No, they would not. UK is a country full of sheep, remember when they introduced the anti-loli law?

Literally nothing. All it says is that artists should have a way to make money from their work if they choose.

You know, it'd be nice if that kinda stuff could be embedded into files.

By licensing something under the CC-BY license basically you waive your rights to seek compensation from licensees as long as they adhere to the requirements of the license.

This was attempted multiple times before and has partly succeeded because ultimately, EU representatives do not seem to be looking out for the people but seem quite subjective to professional lobbyists from "their" or the EU industry. They even put them in committees that prepare proposals like this.
Owen Stewart

And the EU welfare money, the eastern balkan trash lives off on that even tho their politicians pocket 80% of it
Levi Mitchell
LMAOing @ these peasants. t. GCHQ
Blake Williams
I guess that's part of it, too?
But I think at most ~0.5% of GDP is paid by any EU nation, though I guess on the receiving end it may be 5% of GDP it's probably not what Eastern Europe really wants.
They'd kinda like to have 100% of the paying nation's GDP, and obviously not as welfare money but just as their GDP. And for that, they will almost certainly need the market access to trade.

I hope those mesh nets are ready, we're going to need them.
Jacob Mitchell
Actually on second thought this just means that you are still free to let people use your works, bit at any time you have the right to ask for compensation if you feel like doing so.
This just means if your release something under GPL you cannot revoke your decision if you regret it, but with the new system you may change your mind and ask money either way.
For example you could choose to request a compensation of 0$.
Jace Lopez
This poses an even more interesting question, this law is actually to protect the people NOT corporations.
Since a company cannot give me a contract anymore where they force me to sign that I give up all my copyright related right so they can profit of it with more shekels.
Even better if they ever fire me and I wrote a lot of code for example I could demand fair compensation for the amount of code I have written. Or sue them if they are not willing to do so. They would have to rewrite a large of the code if they wanted to do so.
I believe there are also lower taxes in profits brought in by copyright.
Owen Nguyen
Jeezes Christ this law has huge consequences. It would mean that a company is not owned anymore by one Shlomo Shekelberg but by anybody who gave creative input for said company.
Carter Campbell
This is just going to legitimise piracy again. I don't see the issue.
Ethan Ortiz
You voted for taxation without representation. You still need to follow EU regulations when doing business with them.
Henry Murphy
>This proposal has come from the Committee on Culture and Education (CULT). (((They're))) not even hiding it anymore
Eli Foster
The CAN share it freely.
You can still make your stuff freely available. But if at some point you decide to monetize it, you can monetize it from that point on.
Nobody is forcing anyone to pay anything.
This literally doesn't change anything, apart from protecting creators from being fucked over by 50-page license agreements on shady sites.
