If I understand correctly, the European parliament just approved the copyright law essentially without changes, thus supporting the version we protested against in May. What would be the consequences for us?
Cheers Yaroslav
Oh, wow. Interesting how that passed pretty quietly compared to the proposal in May. I don’t think I saw anything reminding us about it over on English Wikipedia.
The Wikimedia Foundation wrote up a blog post with potential consequences earlier this year: https://blog.wikimedia.org/2018/06/29/eu-copyright-proposal-will-hurt-web-wi...
I’m not an expert, but I think there was some kind of exemption in Article 13 for projects like Wikipedia, so that it doesn’t have to do the upload filters – could someone fact check me on that?

At the moment this is just second step of legislation process, not the final vote on directive. Namely, the voting today was for EU Parliament negotiation possition during trilogue discussions in order to adopt a definitive text which will then be voted again at Parliament.So, we should now push our local EU countries goverments as well EU Commission itself to to make substantial changes' proposals for this law, before final voting.

In case it is of use to anyone, I dug out the voting actions on a per-MEP basis. Here it is.
In full, 438 votes in favour, 226 against, 39 abstentions. I went looking for a list of which MEPs voted for what and there does not seem to be a simple, clear, official list. What we do have is a PDF: http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?pubRef=-%2f%2fEP%2f%2fNONSGML%...
This list is available from the 'Results of votes | Votes | Plenary | European Parliament' page[1] and the link to the document is at 'Results of roll call votes available' under Wednesday, 12 September 2018.
Here, as far as I can tell, are the results from the PDF (pages 38-39).
The results appear to be set out by political groupings and not, as one might have expected, by country or constituency:-
In favour:
