Dear list,
If you are in Germany, you might have noticed, an anti-upload-filters
banner went online on Wikipedia this morning. [1] The anti-filters
copyright reform banner will be delivered until late Friday night to 50% of
impressions from the Germany IP range and leads people to a new blogpost on
this topic, one that inter alias makes suggestions for sharing the message
on social media. [2]
The timing for the banner is intentional, as the German position has a lot
of weight in the Council of the EU, where we are right between two
important meetings. The new German Justice minister Katarina Barley is also
a guest at re:publica. [3]
Cheers,
Dimi
