The EU is about to update #Article13 to force sites to use YouTube-style content filters on all uploads.

This is a terrible idea:

Some MEPS are already fighting back:

but they need as many allies as possible:

Please email/call your MEP as soon as you can (as in today!), tell them that these changes are dangerous to European freedom, business and culture.

Actually, I have a theory: a small dominant group simply wants to exterminate the rest of human population, those who aren't "smart" or loyal enough. By means of information technologies as the ultimate force multiplier. Putting the engineers and scientists in a position where they have no other options than working on achieving this big goal.
Although this time the method is not direct violence against them, but simply squeezing all the resources from all the other possible occupations.

"And whats in it for facebook? Whats in it for Twitter? Our attention and our behavior. That data is sold to the highest bidder so that they can return value to their investors. Its fascinating to think about. We’ve taken the internet, something that represents a vast commons of decentralized servers and largely replaced it with the equivalent of hanging out in privately owned virtual shopping malls."

What about #Palantir?
