The European Union is set to enact legislation that will make copyright fair use illegal. It is so far reaching that even simple things like memes and tweets with quotes in them will be illegal. The Electronic Frontier Foundation, Google, Wikipedia, YouTube, and even the United Nations have condemned this legislation.
If you want to maintain a free and fair internet use the hashtag #SaveYourInternet and contact your local government officials telling them you do not want Article 13 to pass.

To #SaveYourInternet, we have to urgently stop the #CensorshipMachine! Let your representatives know that they need to oppose Article 17 [ex Art. 13] of the proposal for the new Copyright Directive.
The current proposals that are being discussed would stifle creativity and freedom of expression online, negatively impacting creators and users’ fundamental freedoms. Read more here on the latest developments of the negotiations around the #CensorshipMachine, and learn how you can make a difference.
Always customize your message! Please remember to customize your message. Explain who you are and why you care about saving your Internet from Article 17 [ex Art. 13] . This will help to refute the claims that all the protest against the #CensorshipMachine is coming from ‘bots’.
European Parliament: Select your country to access a contact list of all your Members of the European Parliament (MEPs), check their voting behavior, and get some tips on how you can address them.
Now if Europe wants the reincarnation of Napoleon Bonaparte to Reconquer Europe and dissolve the EU, then fine. I just hope they know that.
