Hi all, Unfortunately the result was no good. Articles 11 (neighbouring right for press publications) and 13 (platform liability) were carried in full as per EPP proposals. The Freedom of Panorama and User-Generated Content exceptions didn't make it. The final mandate was adopted 438 votes in favor, 226 against and 39 abstentions. The Parliament will now start the negotiations with the Council (trilogue) based on this mandate. There we can work on "safeguarding the public domain" and keeping the carve-out for non-for-profit platforms like ours (which is both in the Parliament and in the Council position). There will be a final vote in the parliament plenary after the trilogue on the the adoption of the final trilogue result. We cannot currently predict a timeline for when this final plenary vote will be, but this will take months. Thank you everyone for the efforts, help and support. Despite the bad news you were great and against terrible odds we got the small improvements on public domain and carve-outs that wouldn't have happened without all of you. We need to remember that these are not our decisions to take in the end and the best we can do is inform and convince, which we did as best as we could. Anna & Dimi

You guys did amazingly, we are all super proud of the work you did.
