Hi,
just to let you know that in Poland a market research agency dropped
some questions regarding copyright reform into their polling and these
are the key findings that may be useful also outside Poland to
demonstrate people are interested and have an opinion about the issue:
* 79% of respondents that know about the reform believe that the new
law would limit access to information online (17% does not see such
a danger)
* 75% believe that it will limit the freedom of speech, also through
the filtering obligation (16% has the opposite opinion)
* 85% of respondents believe the EP should consider users' rights and
freedom of speech protection when carrying out works on the
copyright reform
* 73% believe the measures have not been adequately consulted with all
interested groups and only 5% believe they were adequately
communicated to the public
Best,
Anna
