#Geofabrik is joining #Wikipedia, http://OpenStreetMap.de & many others by blacking out their http://download.geofabrik.de web site for a day to make people aware of the threat that #artikel13 of the planned #EU #copyright directive poses for #OpenStreetMap. #uploadfilter #SaveYourInternet

The text of the EU #copyright directive has been finalised and it looks fierce. @[email protected] has everything you need to know about the proposed European link tax and upload filters. And explains what *you* can do to stop it! ✊ https://juliareda.eu/2019/02/eu-copyright-final-text/

#CreativeCommons (CC) is a way to let people share your work without giving up all your rights.

For example, many bands use it to let fans legally share their music non-commercially, while still being able to charge companies for commercial use.

It's really easy to add a CC licence, just pick the one you want from the official site and add it to your work:

https://creativecommons.org/

You can add CC licences to almost anything, including text, music, video etc.

In case anyone is wondering why #Article 13 is such a bad idea, this is a pretty good summary:

tl/dr: Article 13 would mean YouTube-style content filters on the whole internet.

We already know how badly those work on YT, and we also know that only giants like Google would have the resources to run them. All our uploaded data would be under the control of such giants.

Please help to stop this, you can find out how in the original post of this thread.

#EPrivacy #LinkTax "The proposal would require platforms to filter all uploads by their users for potential #copyright infringements."

"We know from experience that these algorithmic filters regularly make mistakes and lead to the mass deletion of legal uploads."

"These legal ramifications have other implications to more than just the defendant's pocketbook. The rules around copyright influence the AI itself. If you can't train your literary AI on copyrighted materials, you've got to look elsewhere: like the public domain."
