Wikimedia, Edri, In Addition To Others Telephone Shout Upward For Eu Copyright Packet To Uphold Dsm Cardinal Principles

This from Alberto Bellan writing on the IPKat

Wikimedia, EDRI, Application Developers Alliance, along amongst other associations advocating for digital rights and ONGs representing digital creators together with platforms, addressed a letter [available here] to, amid others, European Union Commission's President Junker, Vice-President Ansip, together with Commissioner Oettinger, urging the Copyright Package expected to endure released on xv September to uphold
"the cardinal principles of the Digital Single Market such every bit rights of citizens to liberty of information, access to noesis together with the limitation of intermediaries’ liability, which prevarication at the real foundations of the internet".
In the missive of the alphabet published on ix September, the signatories asking the European Union Commission:

Not to practise a novel ancillary correct for publishers. After the tragic experiments inwards Espana together with Germany, the signatories stress, that - you lot guys should accept understood that distorting copyright to taxation snippets hit "no positive outcomes but has harmed consumers, excogitation together with the mesh at large" -- i.e., non solely Google, but many other pocket-size companies together with startup aggregating together with indexing intelligence on the mesh together with struggling to fill upwardly the gap betwixt onetime media together with digital revolution. In the same regard, the signatories also urge the Commission to publish the reply to Blue Planet consultation on the usage of publishers inwards the copyright value chain together with on the 'panorama exception'. The signatories country that "many accept pointed out that novel ancillary rights for publishers were harmful".

To hold the E-Commerce Directive safe harbour, which "provides a balanced framework which ensures that the interests of correct holders, citizens, consumers, together with businesses tin mail away endure vindicated inwards the online environment". As our real ain Eleonora outlined on the Financial Times [freely available here -- 'The Financial Times! WOW!', says Merpel], getting rid of the no-general monitoring obligation "could ultimately resultant inwards the marketplace for hosting services becoming increasingly hard to access ... So much for creating a European YouTube."

"Scarier than terror!"
On the overstep of that, this Kat finds strange that the real same European Union Commission that would endure proposing an obligation upon platforms to "prevent the availability on their services" of infringing works, "including through the usage of effective content identification technologies" [see the IPKat breaking scoop here], has beingness repeatedly stressing the necessity to hold the security harbour every bit it is together with also to foreclose Member US from adopting full general monitoring obligations inwards other fields of the DSM reform. That is happening, e.g., amongst the General Data Protection Regulation [Recital 21] and amongst the Proposed AVMS Directive [Recitals 29, 30, together with Articles 28a together with 28b]. Fundamental rights such every bit liberty to acquit a trouble concern together with liberty of information, safeguarded past times the security harbour, are duly considered inside the remainder of interests when it comes to protecting personal information together with combatting hatred, incitement, shaver pornography, together with terrorism. Why should non it endure the same when it comes to copyright infringement -- apart from improve lobbysts involved inwards the latter reform process, I mean?

-    Not to bound the Text together with Data Mining exception to 'public involvement interrogation institutions' only, every bit it would "ultimately restrict, rather than unlock, usage of TDM across sectors together with would endure to a greater extent than probable to displace such interrogation together with excogitation out of Europe".

Whilst the leaked Draft Directive on Copyright inwards the DSM that the IPKat leaked here seems to become inwards a dissimilar direction, it would non endure the get-go fourth dimension that the consolidated version of the proposal features substantial changes every bit compared to previous leaks [e.g., that already happened amongst the higher upwardly mentioned AVMS Directive]. Let's hold back a couplet of days together with see.
