Omg it’s £6. I pay more than that if I want to drive on the turnpike and visit the other side of my own state

Yeah but they didn't have to pay before because that's how the EU works, but since politicians and idiots thought that the EU is bonkers or smth they now have to pay (or to quote a song I like "...and isn't it ironic?")...

Article 13 has been approved by EU. It’s worse than Net Neutrality has ever been. I don’t even know if we will have any access to Tumblr, Pinterest, Ao3 or even Instagram. Memes are probably dead, just like reactions, fanfictions and gifsets. Everyone in EU is in danger that they will not have access to their favorite sites. But I haven’t seen a SINGLE post about it on my dash because Americans doesn’t give a damn.

I do not think that America doesn't give a damn. Even in Germany you don't hear that much about "Artikel 13". How can one expect that another country on the other side of the earth knows about it??

THE RESULTS FOR THE VOTE ON EU CENSORSHIP AND LINK TAX.

This it the breakdown of MEPs via their country of origin.

ORANGE is GOOD.

GREEN is BAD.

BLUE is abstain.

PLEASE SPREAD AND REBLOG SO THAT PEOPLE CAN SEE HOW THEIR COUNTRY PERFORMED - EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT IN THE EU. THIS IS NOT AN EASY THING TO FIND.

France and Romania did the worst. If you live in these countries, your representatives were all for destroying the internet. You will need to work twice as hard campaigning your reps when this goes back for a second discussion in September.

Congratulations Sweden, Poland, Netherlands, Lithunania and Estonia.

THIS IS NOT OVER.

The legislation goes back for a re-do in September before we’ll have to fight this battle again.
