I'll wait until I actually see this enforced. I've only ever seen people people say it's a ban on memes and no proper legal interpretation. Seems like the actions of old out-of-touch politicians.

This is how european overlords see the people, as dangerous elements to be controlled. And this is nothing anyone there can do about it except invoke Article 50 (while it's still there) or civil war.Axel Voss wrote:
When asked whether filters will be sufficient to keep Youtube users from infringing copyright, Voss said, "If the platform's intention is to give people access to copyrighted works, then we have to think about whether that kind of business should exist." That is, if Article 13 makes it impossible to have an online platform where the public is allowed to make work available without first having to submit it to legal review, maybe there should just no longer be anywhere for the public to make works available.

their goal is utter censorship and control. It cannot be more obvious.faiswusuf wrote:

It's not like they can drag Peppy to court internationally, they will merely block osu!.abraker wrote:
Eventually osu! will get heat from EU and ppy will have show what they do to remove unwanted content and convince that the way they do that is the best they can do given their resources
afaik there are three things that can result from this
1) osu! is blocked in the EU. Players start using vpns to bypass
2) osu! carries on but a lot of the content that is owned by major record labels and other copyright owners that are likely to strike is purged
3) osu! carries on, nothing happens
It might be a while till that happens (a few years maybe?). I think there are bigger fish to pick on before attention is turned to osu!. If by then the featured artist list is increased ten fold or more then maybe option 2 will be more likely if not 3.

just use VPN looool
Honestly, it's not just Osu! that got affected on this, look at what will happen to twitch, youtube, facebook, ETC.
If the EU really want to protect the artist and other copyright stuff, they should've done it more correctly and more justifiably, if their original attention was just to remove any other copyright content (even if they show a small portion of it) and Don't know what is fair use, then they shouldn't have control the EU in the first place
(haha this thread is gonna be dead because of me)

Imo people would still use VPN even if it's banned. There are still VPN users in China.
And I don't think the law is stupid either. It seems stupid but it's a quick cash grab for them. Imagine you could copyright claim anything on the internet.

Jokes aside, this law is just plain stupid, like they could have been talking and taking measure on some more impactful laws for the greater people; not to secure thier political asses against meme assaults.
Again, I say, this law being passed is stupid as fk.
