A personal appeal from your friendly SFMLab Administrator
Article 13 could mean the end of SFMLab
The European Union is working on legislation that has the potential to break SFMLab and the rest of the internet as we know it. This new law would require SFMLab and other sites to implement systems like Youtube’s controversial ContentID, which automatically scan for copyrighted content and restrict access based on country and/or licence. However, there is still time to make a difference. Visit SaveYourInternet.EU and contact your MEPs.
It’s not funny anymore.
EU citizens be aware!
EU is trying to establish a possible basis for censoring and filtering the internet in ways it is definitely not useful for anybody.
Once this is set it can just get worse and because of its vague definitions it can be misused in so many ways for years to come.
If you are located in EU please don’t just reblog but please actively sign the petition on change.org.
