EUCD – EU about to destroy the Internet!

EUCD. What is Eucd? Which date does the EU vote on the new copyright law? When does the EU link tax enter into force? What does the new upload filter mean? What does the EU link ban mean? How do you buy a license to link to news media? Is it forbidden to quote news sources now? How do you get around the EU link ban?

The EU-Madness continues with ever greater insanity. The Link-tax (EUCD-directive) proposal has now been further developed to implement an elaborate scheme to shut down the internet, silence small publishers and shut the door for small businesses on the internet. The alarm is ringing. It is DEFCON 1 situation for the free internet. This video explains it all, and it is terrifying:

Act now to stop this horrendous EU-law before it becomes illegal to voice your opinion! Call your poiticians, write to your representatives in the EU-parliament and spread the word to all you know about what is about to happen.

Sadly this law was voted through, partly because some members of the parliament pushed the wrong button (!). We now have to live with yet another ill-conceived EU-legislation. EU is destroying Europe from within.
