Hello, I'm copy, you know, as in copyright. You have heard of me, haven't you? I'm kind of a big deal. Through this channel, I'm coming straight to you from Brussels, trying to explain the current copyright review. So first, copyright is a boring, old, complicated thing that's been going per-shape from the star. And I guess that pretty much sums up my life. I actually made a neat little draw my life video about it. Go and watch it, it's there! Today though, I want to talk about my troublesome cousin, Ensi, short for, and Silvery Copyright. Now that one's clearly from my father's side of the family. You know, the money grabbing bunch, you can't too bothered about freedom of information. I hate to be the one to say it, especially as it's me, but copyright is a real nightmare that keeps on growing. Like a bloated puff of fish. I'm sorry, I just keep getting bigger and worse. But with my cousin in the picture, well, things just get worse. It's an internet tax aimed at Google to the benefit of copyright holders. The idea is that cool things that are currently free, such as links or previews, would stop being so with Ensi, copyright. Now just imagine what this would do to the internet, which was built on the freedom to link. I get a link, you see this or that? Take on this, it's got kittens, probably. And once more, when balancing the interests of right holders in the public, the issue falls here. Well, there's less freedoms and more private ownership. This tax is a threat to new services offered by everyone, even though it's not invented yet. For new creators and their audience, the freedom to show, to quote, the freedom to see and be seen are all crucial principles. And I should say this because they're family, but Ancillary Copyright is a nightmare. No one can stand like cousin. Even when you ask them to come around, you don't want them there. Countries that have invited Ancillary Copyright, I wonder what the hell they were thinking. But it's not too late, we can get rid of her. We can still get rid of Ancillary Copyright. There's a unique opportunity to ship her off now that the EU is consulting until mid-June on her merits. Now's the time to get my other cousins to speak up. The fun, interesting cousins that talk about the future and think that more freedom leads to more innovation. They're the ones that say that Copyright is a tool, not a goal. And that the goal is to boost creativity and the access to knowledge. And they are way more interesting than my painful, awful cousin, and see. And that's it for now with my current family troubles.
