FYI, it looks like a draft of the EU Commission's response to the recent copyright consultation has been leaked. Summary here:

The blog says: "From a first reading, this [blogger] actually thinks that it is not very ambitious, and pretty aimed at the preservation of the *status quo*."
But there are important nuances in there, like:
*Civil enforcement*
According to the Commission... a number of policy considerations should be explored further, including clarifying what intermediaries can be involved and how, and *focusing on the 'follow the money' approach*.
That's going to be an important one for us to keep an eye on - not that we're "the money" per se, but that sort of 'focus' tends to be poorly targeted and catch us by mistake.
I haven't been able to read it all yet, but thought I'd share here - interested to hear other people's take.
