Hi all,

This is to let you know that there is a request to have a banner on WP in Germany next week:

The issue is the EU copyright reform, more precisely Article 13 that foresees filtering if user-uploaded content on online platforms.

The angle would be to call out the German government on their position. They have inmistakenly taken a stance against such filters in the coalition agreement, but the German representation in Brussels still maintains its position from the last government (including support for filters).

Please feel invited to join the discussion.

Cheers,

Dimi
