Hello, team!
Part of our EU policy plan for this year is to create very simple issue flyers that can help us as a group and individual volunteer underline certain aspects.
After several years of structured public policy work, I am more and more convince that one of the major challenges we're facing in the copyright and IP debates is the narrative that you have (internet) users on one side and authors on the other side. We must overcome this confrontational setting.
In Brussels we have drafted two flyers https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oMCxqErppinHpLUGB1FbqHK4js--d8fxc2KgBX_pF-c/edit?usp=sharing that try to explain how Freedom of Panorama and the public domain actually help users and authors at the same time. I will move the content to Meta and we will get proper design, but for now it would be great if I get some more comments or edits on this.
Thank you!
Dimi
