Why is the Article 13 bad?

My opinion about the years of the debate and negotiations, politicians have changed a final vote in European Parliament. The changes have proved to cause the disagreement or discussion of platforms like Youtube, Facebook, Twitter and many more to agree with. In my opinion about Article 13 may be bad because you have to respect or you need to get a license from the owner of the copyrighted material. Which means you can’t make content with copyrighted material.

I think that The European Directive on copyright in the digital market requires the likes of Youtube, Facebook, and Twitter to take more responsibility for copyrighted material being shared illegally on their platforms, which i think that The most controversial segment like Article 13, that means Youtubers and Youtube itself will become the most vocal opponents of the law because some of people hate it so much by the fact that it ban all the content but there are few people who feel alright with this law itself

I started research about this law. This is about how the law started, on April 15, 2019, The European council -ministers from each of the 28 EU member states had voted EU law, The copyright Directive as passed by the European Parliament, The six of the member states. Finland, Italy, Luxembourg, Nether lands, Poland, Sweden didn’t vote for the Directive but 19 Eu members voted for the Directive which make the most voted members win and people seems to don’t like it.

I may think about the owner of the copyrighted material that’s why you should limit the copyrighted content that you want to share to online but if there’s an article 13 on Youtube and Youtube has to watch millions of the content creator that use copyrighted material like for example people use pictures of “The Lord of The Ring” to make a video, and then the director of this movie saw this, So Youtube has to block the video or maybe someone trying to make an edited picture on Facebook, Facebook has to block the post. That’s why people disagree about article 13, which it’s a waste of time that Youtube has to watch millions of people doing this and blocking people’s creativity and people’s fun time or something like “meme ban”.

As you can see, there are lots of problem about article 13, which started from the vote of EU member states. In my opinion, Article 13 should be gone for good of the people of social media. I usually watch funny videos in my daily routine on platforms like Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, and many more platforms. If these platforms use this law-article 13, the Content creator wouldn’t make new videos, new stuff or maybe memes, In the end, all I want to say is #SAVETHEINTERNET for everyone’s good.
