European parliament committee approves vote on ‘disastrous’ copyright bill
This is what happens when those in control don't understand, know or care about the things they regulate.So I guess this is bad.--goes and reads article--> Article 11, requiring online platforms to pay publishers a fee if they link to their news content, was also approved.What the fucking FUCK?Pay to send companies actual traffic? Pay to be allowed to use the basic building-block of the world wide web on the world wide web?Just how is it possible to be so out of touch with how things work, and still be allowed to pass regulation?I'm honestly not able to come up with an analogy which sufficiently illustrates just how backwards this whole thing is.
