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-wikipedia/ 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?
